chronic pain
"I've dealt with chronic lower back pain and spasms  L3/S1 now mainly L5 avoided surgery then arthritis set in and am not a candidate for surgery.  I've done the useless epidural shots avoid those as they helping the progression of arthritis. Exercise and take your meds that's enabling me to do my day to day's. Keep a positive attitude and enjoy life as best you can. Don't let the pain win, never stop living"
