I was born with Spina Bifida; at age 70 I had surgery to release tethered spinal cord. Since then I have had terrible pain in my left leg and numbness. The pain consists of stabbing pains, electro-like pains, muscle spasms, etc.
My medical doctor ran out of options as to what was causing it, therefore, I went to a Neurologist who sent me for an MRI. The results according to him: Scar Tissue pressing against nerves. I have had an epidural since then and am to go back for another at a pain management clinic. To date all the things such as physical therapy, injections, Tens unit, pain medications, pain patches, etc. have not help.
Does anyone have suggestions. Thanks.
