Ok, I've had my own aches and pains for a long time, but never decided to get on anything. In my mid 30's I'm still just using a joint supplement, fish oil, and MSM. I do however have a female family member with serious back issues. The issues include several herniated discs, bulging discs, scar tissue, arthritis, which is also causing pressure on nerves.
Now, I am not trying to make a case that Deca or anything will completely solve these problems. She is however tired of going to one pain management doc to the next, to the next. Multiple sets of shots which have not helped, and naturally... the devil itself... opiate pain pills. She's very tired of having to feel like this and just sits and cries to me about what she can do.
All of her doctors say surgery absolutely will not help her. All she can do is keep going to PM. I myself feel like pain management is the biggest scam and money maker in the medical industry. Why would you give someone something so addictive and say "well, you're going to have to be one these for life"? It's very sad and luckily I have never and will never use such a pain medicine.
I am asking you all for some help, input, anything that might be of some help. She already admits that she takes the recommended amount of pain meds, but that she is hooked on them and is scared of the withdraw effects of having to quit.
I know somebody here must be or have been in that same situation or one similar? Would a therapeutic dose of Deca help her? I realize it wouldn't be a permanent fix, but 8-12 weeks of feeling better without pain meds has GOT to be better than the other alternative?
Considered telling her to try TB-500, but there are cancer genes in the family, so that seemed like it would be a poor choice. I know nothing about how any of this would affect a woman's system, so is there some sort of cycle that would be needed if the deca could help?
