What do you know about arachnoditis? I read lots of things that are very negative. I keep hoping to get good news some day. Do you know any other treatments to help with pain other than pain meds, spinal pump or stimulator?

I have read all of your postings. I wish you the best of luck in school.

I want to learn as much as possible. Teach away!!

I go to my regular health care doctor, for pain meds. I had a very bad experience with pain management doctor. I have lots of trouble with my shoulders with spasms.They stay hard and tense. I am sure I hold myself crooked to protect my back. I take pain and depression meds.  Anyway, he had me start on 3-4, over the counter, ibuprofen every 6 hours, for inflammation. Maybe, it has helped alittle. I took a big fall, a few days ago, so I'm sore all over.

I appreciate any information I can get.

Thanks,
Kimberly

Thanks for the quick response. I have never heard of this, but will look into it. You would probably laugh at some of the things I have tried, but at least I keep trying. I have been lucky to get good info from spineuniverse.com. I can put in the information I am interested in and it will give me who does what, in my area. I look forward hearing from you.
