Experiences with

Laminectomy

She agrees the pain could be either PMR, spinal issues ( I had lumbar laminectomy 4 years ago) or Avarostatin which was doubled in dose in June. My chiropractor said my back seems fine and I’m on 2.75 prednisone and feel ok.

Curious, Laminectomy, 1st 4, 5 months ago, 1st couple months felt great, Now, Nerve issues down each leg, Been referred to Pain management, Is this normal?

I e had a Laminectomy in my low back but received no relief from that. The doctor thought that may help with the weak legs. I have no idea how to proceed or where to continue to look for help. Nerve conduction testing is pretty normal.

Before my surgery I had a Laminectomy for Severe Spinal Stenosis. Unfortunately this failed so after a couple of months I was back to square one with my pain with the added complication that a lot of the normal pain relief is not available to me because of the Heart Failure.

Before that I had a Lumber Spinal Laminectomy (which only worked for about 4 months). I’ve since also been diagnosed with Heart Failure so pain relief is very difficult. The Spinal Stenosis is now severe all down the Lumbar Region.

I’ve already had Laminectomy (Decompression) surgery which only worked for about 3 months the pain then returned.

On June 20th of this yr I received a dbl laminectomy on my l4 and l5 vertebra and the knife was removed. Now I am trying to get off the pain drug which is buprenorphine/Nalox. I am down to an 8th of my dose but cannot stop taking it because it is the only thing that shuts down the RLS.

I’ve had a Laminectomy for Severe Spinal Stenosis which unfortunately failed and is now worse than before the Surgery! I also have Heart Failure so I’m very limited in the pain relief I can take. I’m under the Pain Management Clinic at my local hospital.

Was on Arava for 18 months but been off for 1 year due to hospitalisation for infection, also had bad gastrointestinal probs when on so was looking at coming off beforehand. My Rheumy thinks my symptoms don't 'match' my path results recently (been on pred for years) I am in a lot of pain shoulders

I had a Laminectomy which failed (Triple Bypass and Mitral Valve Repair also) now diagnosed with Heart Failure so no “normal” painkillers. Pain Management have advised me to try Tramadol prior to possibly using Buprenorphine patches. Anybody have experience or advice of either. Which is best?

For background: I had a Triple Bypass and Mitral Valve Repair following a Laminectomy for Severe Spinal. Unfortunately this didn’t work and the Pain Consultant has said there is no further treatment that he can offer.

Here's a condensed version of my story: July 2011 Laminectomy C4-C5. no real slide effects except nerve pain in right index finger which I've learned to block with my brain. not a real bother March 2015 Gastric sleeve April 2019 Sciatica in left leg May 2019 Suddenly wake up with extreme burning

I’ve also got Severe Spinal Stenosis which has returned following a Failed Laminectomy Spine Operation. As a result of the Heart Failure I can’t take normal Painkillers like Ibuprofen etc so this is very difficult!

I had an appointment today with my neurologist, I’m three weeks post op for cervical spine laminectomy to decompress my spinal cord. We were discussing my progress and new neurological symptoms following the operation. Talking about my other conditions and the B12 protocol I’m following of EOD.

I had a Laminectomy for Severe Spinal Stenosis which initially worked but has now failed and is worse than before. I had a Triple Bypass and Mitral Valve Repair and have now been diagnosed with heart failure so I’m not able to take any of the normal pain relief medication.

I had l5 S1 fusion/ laminectomy and bilateral foraminotomy almost a year ago. I am still having back pain and a recent xray showed moderate osteoarthritis in the S1 joints. My left hip is extremely tight and my left ankle clunks and sometimes locks up when walking. Anyone have similiar issues?
