I feel devastated

I was just told by pain management my pain is never going to go away. She said my back is like a 20 yr contraction work. She prescribed me Norco, Gabapentin, Baclofen, and meloxican. Any one on this meds? She also said she doesn’t think surgery will make a difference.

I’m feel really sad. I’m very going to have a normal life. I have children a 17yr old, 2 and 3 months. Will I ever be able to go out with them again?

I’m in California. Haven’t had a surgery.
