Very Serious Question. Please do not answer unless you have personal or Medical knowledge?

Again, this is a very serious question. I have chronic pain from Scoliosis, Kyphosis, Stenosis, & Degenerative Disc Disease.
I've had ESI's at a Pain Management Clinic, take strong pain RX, am Diabetic, recently spent 3 weeks in a "Psych Ward" for Suicidal Ideation, was placed on Antidepressants and Mood Stabilizers. (I was diagnosed w/ Depressive Bi-Polar Disorder). I'm 66. Is there anyone who knows of any other ways to help me? My life seems to be spiraling out of control and I feel I'm too young to be throwing in the towel, although most days, all I can do is lie in bed and suffer. I also have early onset Allztheimers - I am very distraught and discouraged. I worked for 36 years and raised three sons alone and want to enjoy life and my grandchildren. I would appreciate any suggestionns and/or encouragement. Of course, I see my Internal Medicine Physician once a month, a Therapist once a month, and a Psychiatrist once a month and follow closely all their advise.PLs advise.


Answers:

My Daughter suffers with Bi-Polar and I can tell you this, if you are not on the correct medicine, it can make your symptoms worse. It took her a couple of years to get on a Medicine that was right for her and when she did, she became a new Person. You do not state what kind of medicine you are on, but obviously it is not working. Talk to your Doctor and get him to change your medicine. I suffer with RA Daily and have degenerative Bone disease and yes it is very painfull. I am on alot of Meds for it but my Doctor also has me on Celexa for Depression and it works for me.. Hang in there, those GrandKids are worth Fighting for..
