Back pain: Please contact a licensed addictions hospital or clinic. They will have MD/DO on staff to help you get off your meds. DO NOT do this by yourself. Then search the work of John Sarno, MD, who has a mind-body approach to pain. Also consider clinical hypnosis (www.asch.net) or biofeedback. Peace and good health.
