Sorry to hear your not feeling well, and I feel as you do and meds are not the answers, but I do take them.  I can't inmagine life without I take.  Glad to hear your shot worked for you.  Have you tried going to a pain specialist.?  It helped me a lot and don't have to take pain meds any longer.  Wishing you a better day.

Thanks selma.the thing i am angry is that the nerve shot us giving me enough relief for a few weeks i dont need more than the dosage i already take of the antidepressant.i prefer a million times more a local anastethicum than throwing in pills....and the reason they also want to higher the dosage is again that they think my vertigo is coming from my mind ;)) i got the shot and i am so much better,but i am sick of getting a million diagnosis from the same doctor....just because he doesnt like the idea of fusion...sorry for venting...and i know others have to thru this and more too. Hugs for all of u

  Hi Iris, I am so sorry u feel that is what they r trying to do to u, but they do that here too,....and those meds r typically what they do use for Chiari pain as not too many other meds work, if that is all they will offer, I understand ur anger...but u may want to try this until a diff treatment is offered to help control it.....

Vent away...holding it in is not good.....
