back pain & evoked potiental test

I have been having back pain alot lately, I know it is muscle pain.....can't seem to the simple things without my back giving me hell...is this caused by lesions? Plus I had a Evoked potiental test done on my eyes , back and hearing ....she had to really up the charge on my feet to get a movement in my toes in order to do the test...does this mean maybe I have lesions on my spine?

Hi there... I get back pain at times and it's so horrible.. I can barely move when it happens... I also get pain in my butt..usually on one side or the other.... it's in the muscles...not sure why it happens... I apply warmth to it for a short time..or put on a cream like A535 Rub. that helps for a short time too.

I know it's not easy going through all the test. I also had a EVP, and EMG..which can be painful .. take care and let us know what the Dr says about the results.

I don't know if it mean lesions... have you had MRI of your brain and full Spine MRI?
what results did it show if you had them??

take care

Hi!  Saw that your post fell to the bottom without an answer, so I wanted to let you know I at least read it and will bump it up for others to see.

I'm a limbolander, so not one that can help much.  The weekends can sometimes be slow around here, so hang on and hopefully someone with more knowledge will see this and help out.

In the mean time, try going through the health pages in the upper right hand corner.  There is a wealth of information there that helps.

Best Wishes!
Karen
