Oh yes, the pain is there due to degenerative disk disease which has been present since 1988.
There is no cure and it has become progressively worse between each medical procedure.
I am past repair. I will not get better and there are no exercises, procedures, natural remedies, herbs or incantations of a shaman that will cure me.
All that can be done for me is pain management. I have the choice between this medical device and massive doses of pain killers which are addictive and becoming much more difficult to get script for in our present legal climate due to those that abuse them.
The problem I have had lately is that light pain killers simply do not touch the pain and the doctors will not prescribe heavier pain meds due to fear of losing their licenses for "over prescribing".
And yes, this masks the pain, that is exactly the purpose of the device with no apologies!
This is not pain one can "tough out" or deal with using meditation and visualization. This is "stick a butcher knife in your spine and have someone come along and kick it every 15-20 seconds" type pain.
It is present and it will remain present until the day I die, only managed by the advances in technology as they develop.
Right now I am on day 5 of the test and I am overjoyed with the results. I have not even taken an aspirin in the past 4 of those 5 days and normally I consume 2-4 naproxin, a half dozen IBprophin and a half dozen Tylonol daily, in addition to whatever other pain relief is prescribed, and the pain is still present.
