At the very least, they can prescribe you pain meds that will work. I'm sure chiro works for some people, but certainly not everyone, and I'm not sure it should take this long. This is coming from someone who broke her back, so think about it. Being properly medicated for pain releases a lot of the stress and tension and allows your body to heal, and they'll certainly get you on a physical therapy regimen that can/will prevent future episodes.

I feel for you. I've only ever had temporary back pain and that was bad enough. And, by the way, was it you who texted me from Blogher? Because I really wanted to go. This sounds awful!
