Thats the thing, I'm not 100% sure what chronic pain consists. I know it is pain that has lasted 6 months with nothing helping it but are there more restrictions? With my bulging disc issue that started a little more than a year ago and since then I've been to physical therapy, taken many vicodin/flexorils, saw a specialist, had an mri done and now sometime after the 14th am supposed to get some cortizone shots. But if the shots help that no longer counts as chronic pain right? And with my Osgood Schlatter disease I havent done anything for that in a long time except to see my doctor a couple of times since its kept me out of work (just for work verification) Ive had it for so long now that I just "deal" with it. I'm just trying to avoid spending 300$ for no reason if nothing happens is all...thanks!
