Wow. I've had bulging discs/herniated discs/ and a ruptured disc in my back have had surgery and gone through the steroid injections; I've known many many people with disc problems in back and/or neck and never known anyone to get put on methodone for it. I know nothing about getting off methodone but have personally found physical therapy/yoga/and acupuncture at times to work tremendously. I had back surgery and know many others who have as well and it's not that bad, yes quite frequently several surgeries are required but that to me is better than a drug addiction. Also, if you haven't been to a neurosurgeon you should go, then can often work wonders in areas where an orthopedic surgeon cannot.
