I have wrote before that I had an excuciating 2 1/2 months with clusters and ghosts that almost took my sanity.
My work comp doc (Texas) finally got me approved to see a neurolgist, which , by the way, I have an appoinrment today at 2PM. and he put me on Butalbital.
when they went away. I tred to stop the pills. within 12 hours the headaches started to reappear. This worries me cause I heard this stuff is addicting.
The problem is is that workers comp is only gonna pay for the injury and symptoms related to the injury, nothing more. when the headdache is suppressed by the med I get my terrible neck pain back and did some research and found out that they were supposed to fuse c-5 and c-6 plus c-6 and c-7. but they really only fused c-5 and c-6. thus I beleive that thwsw headaches are neurolocical as well as vascular.I am gona jump sombodies rear end and find out why I was lied too.
Thank you for your time all. you were very wonderful to me.
