My back is fucked beyond anything. Am in constant pain, and on really strong painkillers all the time. I'm waiting for an appointment at a pain clinic.
I just don't know how I can carry on teaching like this. All the specialists etc say it's to do with my job. It used to get better in the holidays at one point, but now it's shit all the time.
I can't afford to give up, but feel too spaced out on medication and in too much pain to carry on. So, is it even possible to get it these days? I'm 52
