Meds for facet joint osteoarthritis
Hello,
I was diagnosed with facet joint osteoarthritis and some degeneration at L5-S1 in spine. I have pretty bad pain so I am also getting a MRI to rule out disk buldge. I am on clonazepam for my migraines, and they only give me Tylenol and Ibuprofen plus a muscle relaxer for 10 days. I have been taking 10 mg Amitriptyline for 7 years (also for migraine) but they have tried to increase that. I really need help with the pain in order to get moving again. Any suggestions?
