Michael, I know first hand what you are going thru it can be very hard to find a Doctor that will treat you as a human being in pain and as you said not some one searching for drugs I have found that a Neurologist/ pain Doctor have a very good understanding of your situation and since you have so much pain in the neck this alone would be a reason to see a Neurologist . There are also many good Pain specialist that treat pain they will work with med's and other ways to relive your suffering . I hope this has helped some my heart goes out to you and others's in your situation and I hope you don't mind but I will also be saying a prayer for you all the best to you . Jim

hello, i just spent 20 minutes writing a response and then as i checked the spelling it vanished into the air..thank-you aol! anyway...as i researched breast pain due to the fiber-op cysts, i have on both sides, i came across "evening primrose oil". europe has been researching it and prescribing it for 20 years! they prescribe it for everything from arthritis, ibs in women, pms, pain in the back, breast pain and so on. i bought it at a vitamin store for about 15.00 for 60. you take 2 a day with food. i am taking 2600 i.u.'s a day. with in the 3 weeks, as my cycle was about to start, and that is when i feel so much pain in my breast.....i was overwhelmed with the thought that i had no pain..a twing or 2, but i didn't have to miss work! i started to notice the swelling in my feet and ankles went away and the pain in my right shoulder was gone. I am a chef and caterer and 49 years old! i lift and pull and drag and i am swearing that the difference has been the herb! They have never found a side effect and it's pretty cheap! I am not a pill taker, either....i drink carrot juice and take a primrose oil and my intake of tylanol has decreased as well! As far as your carpel tunnel goes, if you have the insurance...have the ops! i did 2 years ago....i am so greatful! i couldn't hold anything! i let it get very severe...the operations worked on me...but i had a great surgeon! i'm not checking spellimg this time..so forgive me..but I really hope this helps....research "Evening Primrose Oil"..it is a natural anti-inflamatory!!  Good luck! carla

Hi, Michael~

I know what pain is and how other people are usually unwilling or unable to relate to our pain.  Sounds like your entire body needs to be rebuilt.

Dr. Mercola has a clinic in the Chicago area.  He is a famous M.D. who uses natural medicine and has helped many people.  You can get more information at www.mercola.com .

Hope this information is helpful.
