Hi Everyone,

I am new to the site and am seeking some advice. I have Thoracic Degenerative Disc Disease, it is from repetitive stress related to my job. Unfortuately I cannot get away from the type of bending I do since I am quite tall and most things I work with don't take this into account or are not very ergonomically friendly. I am hoping to stay at my job. I was on Viox at one time until it was no longer available and it was the only thing that seemed to work for me. My doctor has tried many different things but I have gastro-esophageal reflux and also cannot take meds that cause constipation so am very limited. I have read a lot about Arnica but are there other natural pain /anti-inflammatory drugs that would be effective and not upset my stomach or cause constipation? I have also tried physio and am seeing a chiropractor along with massage therapy but not responding. I am at a loss, any help would be appreciated.
