    I am limited to doing only what activities are necessary and physical therapy. Seeking an alternative to back and neck surgery for a long term surgery, but alternatives are highly cost prohibitive.
    Recently have had steroid and cortisone injections in lower back and neck. Both reduced pain significantly and very pleased with the results thus far. Legs at this point seemed to be the larger pain issue. Will be pursuing treatment for it.

    I am not able to do simple chores. I cannot vacuum. I cant do simple hygiene tasks without help. I have to go to my
    Mothers house to take a shower because I cant get in our tub without hurting myself. It affects every area of my life. I feel less of a person. I cant even be a good mother to my children or be a good wife to my husband
    I often feel like I would be better off dead than this non life I am living. I am worth more dear than alive....insurance. I am not suicidal or have a plan. Just a thought that entered my head.
