1. If it is back pain it could be depression. I suffered back pain and insomnia

for a year and a half before I tried a pill for depression. Back pain went away.

6. Yes- it's taken my legs from me.

The pain in my feet and legs is so bad I can no longer walk (or even stand). It sucks.

8. Was being treating for a herniated neck disc and that's when the kidney stone hit

one year ago.

After the first procedure and with the stinting still in-place for the first time in my life, my brain began seriously saying, "how can you end this."

Pain medication is seriously limited in hospitals here as they believe they are addictive and so go against Islam!!!

10. Anti-inflammatory foods can really help with chronic pain

Just adding some of the good anti-inflammatory foods into your diet can help relieve several types of pain. I still have to take narcotics, but when I made some changes in what foods I ate - it made a big difference.

I got about 3 hours of slepp last night, myself.

Sorry to hear I'm not alone.
