I am tired of being treated like a criminal for being in pain. I was in a car accident about 7 years ago and have been in sever pain since. I have had multiple back surgeries and need disk replacements on L5 and L4. I used to be fit and a runner but since I have gain 100 lbs due not being able to be active and depression. I have lived with the pain for years but up until about 2 years ago it just got too bad. I have tried injections, physical therapies and massage therapy. I need pain meds so i can be active so I can have surgery. I am so tired of feeling guilty for asking. Please Help! I am at my wits end.

I have a chronic back ailment and have lost my insurance after 6 years of treatment , mostly with medicine and physical therapy. I moved home to Louisiana after losing my inurance and going thru a divorce, finding myself with less money, alot of pain ,no help with the bills and doctors telling me to go to a pain clinic . The ones i have talked to so far are either too expensive (600 monthly) or insurance only.
Your best bet on this one is to just visit these homes http://local.yahoo.com/results;_ylt=AkcX… A nursing home will not be able to provide intensive physical therapy so it all depends on what exactly you mean by physical therapy. Nursing homes need to be visited. Also if you need good physical therapy you will have to take them to a physical therapist in a hospital. Nursing homes often give rides to the people in homes to outside medical care.
My doctor recommends physical therapy for me — left hip replaced over a year ago and now having difficulties with right knee as well but not ready for surgery yet. (The docs say yes, I say no, not yet). I’ve fallen a couple of times and need help with strengthening and balance so I don’t fall again. There are so many choices out there. Any personal recommendations?
Me and my wife will be moving there very soon. We are both Filipinos. We are really worried about the security and the transpo aspects there.
Please help! 
BTW, My wife we’ll be working in a Physical Therapy clinic either at Sycaucus, Belleville or at NY. Thanks!
