Multiple fractured vertebrae in constant pain all the time
Hello all. I have multiple fractured vertebrae (I believe 5 or 6 not sure exactly I just stopped keeping track) from seizures over the years, and I am in pain pretty much all the time, ranges from very rarely just at least noticeable to the vast majority of the time very considerable and a lot of time severe, with neck, shoulders, entire back, hips and upper thighs and more all experiencing pain, as well as frequent headaches and sleep problems and more too of course. So needless to say IOW the chronic physical pain has a serious impact on my quality of life in many ways, and I am really really just so tired of it...
So I am making this post mainly, because I have never received any treatment for any of it ever since the 1st one happened probably very roughly a decade ago, and it of course has only gotten worse especially with more fractures, and I just really don't know what to do or even how to even simply start, in regards to trying to make it better... and I really deeply feel like just 'treatment' as in like going to a chiropractor every week and getting adjustments and massages and medications and all that kind of stuff, is seriously not going to make much of any difference at this point and degree, and yield the results that I need and am just so desperate for... I wish that something like vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty would possibly be an option but from what I've read I'm pretty sure those are more than likely not an option, and I haven't heard of or found anything else in that kind of ballfield that would be an option either... so I really am just very disheartened and disinclined to even try seeking any treatment, because like I explained it's not even going to give the change and difference that I simply truly need for myself...
