Cervical Fusion c5-6, pain after surgery please help
Posted , 4 users are following.
I had a cervical fusion c5-6 back in nov 2015, now in almost april im still having extreme pain in my neck and shoulders. My surgeon and pain management are in the same practice, after taking 3 months to get me a pain management appointment the doctor states to me he will not be giving me pain medication, but instead wants to do injections and i still have to wait another month for those. I have been doing pt for a month and a half. Muscle relaxers dont help. i understand that they a relucatant to prescribe pain med, but i only take a 5mg every 8 hours and im pain free. xrays done after surgery show everything is fine, everything is not fine this is not ok, im in extreme pain and now they dont want to help me and im not sure where to go from here.

Pain is awful to deal with, I suggest you talk to your family doctor and perhaps go to another pain center, we have one here called North West pain center, they are many places in washington, check on line to find all pain centers close to you. I go to this one and you don't have to wait long or have a doctor referral. Hope this helps.
