My accident update

[stormforce]

The pain is intense I know. I finally got it sorted in an unorthodox way.
But the pain was so bad I was willing to try anything.

I could live with the pain i have but i would just like to be able to have something done to ease it off more to at least let me get on with life a little better.If things don't work then at least i know i've tried

[Robmatthews]

so are you still alive?

[stormforce]

i am Rob yes....When do you want the spoiler and deflector

whenever you get it off,money is ready,you better be quick though as im spending it like water on the new race car

[stormforce]

should be off this weekend

[Robmatthews]

no worries you about down they on sunday then?or i'll pop into yours.

your leg op has not kept you in bed for long then?

[stormforce]

it wasn't an op but it was steroid injections into the nerve but done under xray.I'm there tomorrow and sunday

[stormforce]

Went back to the pain clinic today and there is now nothing else can be done as the previous treatment hasn't worked.There was a 50/50 chance of it working anyway so i'm not to dissapointed by it not working.
I will be on painkillers and all the other meds now for the fore seeable future or until they can find some way of healing the nerve damage to the sciatic nerve in my right leg and hip.
I am pleased tho that the treatment i had on the femoral nerve had worked and made a 60% improvement although i do still get pain but its more bearable than it was.
Just need to wait now on the compo to be settled then get on woith life as best as i can

Hi Stormforce

I can't say I have read all about your accident, but, I noticed you are having pain and nerve issues, I'm in a similar boat after a very nasty motorcycle accident, had the steroid injections about 4 months ago with no joy. Now I'm in a position where they are saying nothing can be done, there's a bright side...

I'm going to see a chap called Dr R Munglani in an attempt to see what can be done about the levels of pain I'm experiencing. From what I can tell he's the top pain specialist in the country.
I would advise you to check this out,

If you see fit give his secretary a call 01223479024.

Really hope this helps, I know quite how shitty it can be to constantly eat tablets and still be in agony.

Good luck mate.

Sorry it wasn't better news Richard

I'm on permanent painkillers for my compressed discs. Sciatic pain is no fun.

I just hope you get the compensation sorted soon - read about you being messed around in the other thread.

Some people don't realise how painfull it is and you can't get comfortable no matter how you sit, stand or lay.
The last lot of treatment i was told by the doctor that they don't say i should have it done as there is a chance of the pain getting worse due to the type od injections etc being done and where they were to.It was up to me if i wanted to take the chance on it working,staying the same or being worse so i took the chance.I knew the pain would always be there but never knew how much or how little but on a positive side i suppose its better for the compo claim.
The money would be very nice but i have always said i would prefer to be how i was five years ago before the accident as money can't give you your health back

[JUDWAK]

i know the feeling stormy
thing is you are the same person that you were 5 years ago
it take a long time to get over such a blow
iam in the same boat only if i put in a claim i would only be sueing mi dad

its a hard blow in life
i feel iam not the same has i was too
but iam just has mad has ever just cant do what i used to do
but you are the same person in side ya just slowed down a bit
i hate slowing down (personaly)
but it helps to maintain who you are mate

takes more than pain to change a guy of your caliber

i use herbs dude all types of herbs not just the smoking type
look in to it mate it
give me my life back
its not for every one granted
but not every one in this position are they

there is releaf out there mate and its not always medical

Yeah, the sciatic pain I had was the worst I've ever experienced.

The last lot of treatment i was told by the doctor that they don't say i should have it done as there is a chance of the pain getting worse due to the type od injections etc being done and where they were to.

My doc has told me I could try some painkilling injections into my spine, but recommended against it. There's a good risk you can end up in more pain instead.

I'm just looking into disc replacement surgery, but I'm not sure whether it's available on the NHS. Getting all the info I can ready for when I next see my doc.

The money would be very nice but i have always said i would prefer to be how i was five years ago before the accident as money can't give you your health back

Most definitely!

Pain

Hi Rich sorry to hear about the nerve problem and the pain it causes as you know i have suffered for the last 36 years with pain, its the one thing that they can not measure is pain so they can not put a fixed price on it.
No matter what they offer it wont be enough just get it reviewed every 12months or so.
