Wednesday February 9th late at night I started to feel bad back pain. I went to bed thinking it was just back pain nothing else.

* I had not done anything to my back.
* I had not lifted anything to heavy.
* I had not fallen at all
* I had not been hit at all

Thursday February 10th I woke up early morning in alot of back pain. So much back pain that:

1.) I couldnt put any pressure on my back (meaning i couldnt put my back against anything)

2.) I could not stand up straight at all (I am so bent over and cannot stand straight at all I look like a question mark or the hunch back)

3.) The pain is horrible 10 or higher! Its from my butt to my neck. Most of the pain is lower back!

4.) I was getting sick from the pain (sick as in throwing up, when I move or even when laying still)

5.) The only thing I could keep down was toast.

6.) Nothing can touch my back a tiny bit of pressure makes the pain worse!

7.) I can hardly walk due to the pain in my back and the fact im bent so much

8.) I cannot do anything on my own do to all the pain and being bent so far.

I started calling my doctors about help due to everything heres the info that they have said and tests they ran and test results:

1.) Hospital ran a pee test saying my symptoms seemed like kidney stones.
—Answer came back I do not have kidney stone, but I do have small amounts of blood in my urine (not on period)

2.) Hosptial ran a xray to make sure of kidney stones
— Answer xray came out negative for kidney stones
—- Released from hospital with medication for a possible infection.

3.) Seen my normal doctor she ran a pee test, and checked me out.
—Answer Pee test came out with just small amounts of blood in my urine.
— Answer checking me out she said she thought I had some type of infection taking over my body so she gave me pain medications to cure my infection.
**** Pain medication did not help > actually made me really sick.

4.) Seen a sports care doctor (aka back doctor) They said they could tell I was not in good shape and said it was probably just a musle spasum. But said it was obvious I am not well. They did a xray of my spine.
—- Answer, xray showed my l4 & l5 lumbar are fused together
**** Doctor said maybe that is why I’m in so much pain, they gave me pain medication and set me up for an mri to see if my nerves in my l4 & l5 lumbar are damanged or not.

5.) Pain medication did not help actually made me more sick

6.) February 22nd had my mri done.

7.) February 24th the doctor called and said my mri showed that my nerves are not damaged. But that my disk below my L5 is bulging.
**** They said that would be causing a little bit of the pain but not all the pain im in.
***** THey said they dont know what else is wrong and advised me to see a pain managment doctor.

8.) The doctor gave me pain medication and pain patches to wear but that is all they offered. They said when my pain goes to a 5 and im able to walk more and stand up more then ill have to go through physical therapy > but no idea when that will be.

With all that is said above,
1.) I’m still in alot of back pain
2.) I’m still unable to stand up (still bent downward!)
3.) I’m still getting sick off and on.
4.) Pain meds are not helping at all.
5.) Still unable to have anything touch my back as it adds more pain!
6.) Unable to do anything!

I’m looking for any advice, or ideas to try or even to look into! Anything would be appreciated! I’v delt with this for far to long, and cannot do anything at all! I’d like to have my life back. I’d like to find an answer or a different option to fix the pain issue so i’m able to stand up and have no pain or at least less pain! Right now doctors I’m personally seeing have thrown their hands up in the air and said they dont know and can no longer help. If you could please offer any kind of advice on what I should do or another type of doctor to look into seeing or even tell me something you think it could be so I can look up information on it or anything else I’d honestly with all my heart appreciate it! This has taken over my body, and has taken over my life. I no longer can live a normal life. I’d like to get back to normal and be able to do things again! Please…

Please! And thank you to those who offer any kind of advice or ideas or exc. Myself, and my family are trying so hard but were running out of ideas so I thought id try to get others help at this point. Ill do anything for answers. And maybe you can think of something we havnt or even my doctors havnt!

Thanks again!
