I fell a few months ago and landed on my head and spine (it was the corner of an object so I landed perfectly down the center from head to tailbone).
After a few weeks of head issues it all pretty much cleared up, until last week when I started having severe back pain to the point where I can’t walk much. I feel like I’m going to pass out from the pain and my whole body feels like it’s burning from the inside out.
There is nothing on imaging or labwork. Strong meds like oxy did not help much if at all. I am also overdo for arthritis medication so was fighting a ton of inflammation and pain already.
What can I do until a specialist sees me? I have to wait for insurance approval and then an appointment, which could take months since they are so busy.
It sounds like you could benefit from meditation.
But don’t believe me, do your own research into meditation and pain management.
I got this thing called actual treatment and actual medicine. It works great. I don’t have to think about auras, shakras, diluted water, concentration, jesus, raw milk, horse meds, coffee enemas, acupuncture, herbal tinctures, or any of that totally powerful and definitely reputable stuff.
Thanks for the offer though, I’ll ask my town shaman about meditation next time we go ask for more rain unless you’ve got a Facebook group I can go follow.
As you clearly haven’t done a cursory Google search, there’s peer reviewed support for the benefits of meditation.
