Should I be asking for more at this stage?
I’m only about 6 weeks in but the pain is unbearable. Throughout those weeks the pain has changed and no longer causes back issues, but my buttock and burning shooting pains going down my leg. It’s bad enough I’m currently trying to collect some painkillers and I haven’t made it 2 minutes down my road before having to stop and crouch down to try and stop the pain (I have taken ibuprofen to no avail)
It’s come on suddenly and with no clear reason, however I do have a back injury from having to jump 35ft to escape a murderer - they said I have disintegrating lower plates on the MRI - this has caused a dull ache in my lower back across the last 6 years but super manageable until now.
Do I need someone to check this out further? Was diagnosed on the phone and confirmed by a PT. Said I still have reactions so isn’t that bad basically.
I feel I have a pretty high pain threshold, I’m covered in tattoos and I broke 15 bones that day amongst other issues and stopped pain relief after a week. This is making me question if I even want to be alive.
