    Hi Paul thanks for the reply I've heard people saying that it compensates for the neck you wouldn't have thought that would you, how does it do that is it CS bit in lower back do you think it has spread to there x

      no, no ops paula was offered 2 years ago to see spinal surgeon but said no what else and they said can go to pain clinic which i did but was given tramadol sr, which didnt work so went to my docs and after trying various other meds i am on morphine twice daily, i dont want to have any ops so just carry on working fulltime and seeing how it goes may have to add other pain meds with the zormorph not being enough x
