I injured my back about 8 years ago and have been in and out of pain clinics - for me it started out as dependencey but quickly shifted to addiction.

Do you know what type of pain it is? Nerve? Muscle? Tendon? Bone?

Each has it's own unique alternatives to pain meds. For Nerve I'm experimenting now with a spinal cord stimulator that over rides the pain signals with an electric current. It doesnt fix anything, it's not pain free but it makes it managable as science evolves - i hope one day they will have a science break through in nerve pain.
