Thanks for taking my question. I have had 3 back surgs. and still have sevear pain in back and down legs with much weakness. What should be my next step. I have tryed everything I can think of to relieve this pain. Therpy and acupuncture did not help. All suggestions will be much appreciated. Thank you, Karen




I am afraid this matter is far too complicated and the information available
is inadaquete to give a meaningful response via this forum.
I would however suggest that you consider a referral to The Cleveland
Clinic Center for failed back surgery which specializes in exactly
this sort of case.
The surgeon is Dr Robert biscupp whose office can be contacted at
1(440)899 5613 or call 1 800 CCF CARE and ask for Dr Biscup's appointment
office in the Westlake sattelite.
