Anyone with longterm backpain?

I had rny 3yrs ago and have had chronic backpain for about seven year. I worked in a nursing home as an aide and lifted and stood on my feet long hours at 300lbs. A few months before having rny surgery I was desperate for pain relief and went to see a chiroprator this has not resoved my back pain issues and the adjustments are extremely painful. I have been getting these adjustments regurlarly for about 3yrs now using thereapy and a tens unit, you name they've tried it. I was told for years that if I would get some of that weight off I wouln't have all these problems 90% of them were just weight related well now I have lost around 160lbs. and my back pain is worse. It is not just a pullled muscle or strain as I stated this is chronic 7yrs, chiropratic 3yrs I think sometimes being overweight for so long just does longterm damage to our bodies that can not be reversed. On the ending I am scheduled to have physical therapy and see my primary care physician on Monday, I am finished with chiropractic care beings I was only getting worse and 3 co-pays a week were getting very expensive. I would love to hear from someone with this similiar situation.Big Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
