Life after car accident


by: karen on Mon, Apr 14 2008

I was in a car accident in 1994 and have lived with chronic neck and jaw pain since. I am now facing my second round of spinal injection and currently live on medication to get through the days. It is difficult because everyone says they understand but unless you live with chronic pain you don’t understand the stress it exerts over your entire life. I work full time and never let it keep me down but at 48 years of age I am just tired to keep a head up. I have found the only thing that has help is a caring doctor who listens. Don’t let people tell you there is nothing else they can do.
