Why have I always been 100% non-susceptible to opiate derivatives?
In 2000 I was run over by my co-worker with a 14-ton forklift at work. I have undergone 19 surgeries and have spent over 70 days in the hospital. My right thigh and knee sustained a de-gloving injury from the hip to just below my knee and my left foot sustained a liz-frank injury, crushed foot. I also had new ligaments put in my right knee. I had 12 screws and 2 steel plates put in my left foot. I also had 3 internal bone infections due a protruding screw at the top of my left foot. I had the Head surgeon of Orthopedic's, Plastic and the Pain clinic at OHSU as my Doctors. The head of the pain clinic said that I have what is called complex regional pain syndrom type 2 and that I was 1 in 300,000 people who were not susceptible to opiate derivatives such as Dilotted, Oxi Cotton, Morphine, etc. Not only did I not get 1% pain relief, but I also didn't notice even 1% strangeness in my mind while ever being on an opiate.The only way to elevate my pain was through long term epidurals, of which I had 3 of them during my long stay in the hospital. In August of 2008 I put my home in Oregon up for sale so I could move my 8 year old Autistic son and I to Montana while I underwent a left lower leg amputation from the knee down. My Doctors have stated that there are 3 unions in my mid-foot which have never fused/healed together. My pain was so bad that I have wanted hundreds of times wanted to drive to the ER and hatchet my foot off and then let the doctors take over from their. With a month to go until surgery, I started taking a group of supplements
I have spoken to 3 sports medicine professionals and 4 Doctors regarding the supplements I take on a daily basis. Their response is always of profound shock and amazement. Since I started taking this regimen in 2008, I have regained a new sense of freedom from intense knife stabbing pain. My entire health has benefited from the regimen I've been taking. I am using this supplement methode as a way to prolong my inevitable amputation. I have lost about 70 ponds and have cut my cholesterol and blood pressure by a 1/3.
And just because this worked for me, doesn’t mean you should go to the store and purchase the items Iv'e mentioned right away. You must do your research and I suggest contacting your Doctor as well.
So, like my title asked, why have I always been 100% non-susceptible to opiate derivatives?
