had a motorcycle accident last April – fractured wrist/leg/etc….developed premature arthritis from muscle tissue healing around fractures from accident and impact to body – my body has been working overtime using other parts to compensate for disabled parts – diagnoised with 40% loss of function in hand/wrist, since then, pain has been unbearable at times. Working with docs on pain meds – now on Naproxen twice a day and Percocet twice a day – it’s working, but personally i’m concerned because it’s the only way to function – would this be considered an addiction???? or a lifelong pain management step in a better direction. Without any meds, I can’t move, stiff, sore, cry in pain – I’m 38 yrs old, was extremely active before the accident, work full time, one daughter, one husband, 3 acres of land to care for – full time all around care giver. Any suggestions or alternatives? or stick to what works for now????
went through intensive physical therapy, no improvement, have a counselor to handle the emotional strain. Saw a chiropractor (lots of smoke and mirrors for me – pain intensified after a few visits)
Butalbital APAP Caffeine
