[|Human|] I have scoliosis,degenerativedisc,and arthritis all the way from my neck to my lower back. I have had 3 neck fusions and 4-5 back fusions. I am being told that I need another neck fusion ASAP. My pain is 24-7 along with breakthrough pain. I am unable to stand in one spot for more than maybe 4-5 minutes without my back starting to feel as if it is caving in. I go to a pain clinic, but even with all of the meds I take, I still suffer daily when all I really want is to be able to enjoy life. I will be 60 in November, but don t think that is too old to want to be active and enjoy doing it. I am so fed up with all of the meds, I want a solution. I don t think that is too much to ask.
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. After going through your query I think your You are suffering from lumbar spondylosis with degenerative spine. Rest in position of relief, Cartilage D once daily, NUROKIND GOLD ONCE DAILY and analgesics (DICLOFENAC 100 MG SLOW RELEASE TABLETS) give relief. Sometimes vitamin D deficiency can aggravate this so serum vitamin D test is advised if it is lower than vitamin D supplementation will be required. You may be further investigated by MRI and operation may be required.  I think your query answered. Welcome to any follow-up query
