I have been dealing with pain in my thorasic spine for a number of years. I have had the drug treatments, steroids (which threw my diabeties off) and radio frequency.

I have several bone spurs along the thorasic spine and herniated disc as well as deterioration of the vertibra. I am at the point where I can no longer do the physical labor that I used to do and enjoy. It seems that trying to be grandpa to my two grandchildren takes all the strength I can muster. The pain is so bad that there are times I can not eat.

The pinched nerve in the thorasic spine gives me ever sign of a heart attack. Pain along the nck and jaw radiating down the arm, I feel like I have an elephant on my chest at times, I am not talking about ever now and again I am talking like 60+% of the time. I don't feel it as bad when I am drugged up, but whio can function on that mess.

I am looking for answers. HELP PLEASE... Suggestions any thing
