In that time I had also gained 68lbs from not being active for a month, developed diabetes,
high blood pressure, tachycardia, vision problems, diastolic dysfunction, and excessive sweating. At the time I was not a good candidate for total joint replacement, so I was referred to a pain clinic. I was out on fentanyl and oxycodone after trying multiple other combinations. Even those barely take the edge off the pain in my joints, so I am wondering if they are missing something.
