I am also disabled I just received triple the care giving hours because of my pain. I m not lazy my quality of life is good because I m not suffering. Tell me me what to do
Long term painkillers might creat another organ like liver disorders. painkillers hide diseases rather than treat it. you are 43 years old, so you must go on for test for endocrine disorders like thyroid and ovary to rule out any any pathology or insufficiency. Bone degeneration is common at this age so test for alkaline phosphatase and vitamin DE level should be checked. Accordingly take medication for that.Till time, avoid painkiller as much as possible
