[|AI|]  Jennifer, I have quite similar back problems. I'm 28 and it all started almost 2 yrs ago after my son (then 11 months) and I were rear-ended by a guy that was stoned and on his way to another party! He has no idea how he has impacted our lives! I don't have any answers for you, as I'm still seeking them for myself, but just wanted you to know I can appreciate and understand your pain and frustrations.  I wish you the best, and do all you can to get off those meds! My insurance only pays for narcotic meds (the cheap ones!) so I now pay out of pocket every month to see non-traditional practitioners. It all stinks very much, but you can do it! There is some hope...you and your child Chat Doctor.
