Living with Osteo
Hi, I have lived 30-odd years since my diagnosis and think I’ve been lucky in being able to avoid
spinal
fusion
back then. Suddenly have developed crumbling jaw which means my teeth have started falling out!!

Journey home
Yesterday I was in London with my daughter who was having a
spinal
fusion
. I had started my day very early as you do to get her checked in-she went to Theatre lunchtime so it was a long morning.

As I write , I am newly brim full of BIIB054 after 2 months missed due to "le confinement" as the lockdown is called in France. Nice to be back with my team. And to get topped up.

Thoracic syrinx on my spine
Can I ask anyone, how serious is a thoracic syrinx on your spine, I'm really worried that the syrinx will stop me from having spinal cord stimulator operation to help with my neuropathy in my feet

App will reduce high risk of falls during and after Lockdown.
A free app has been developed at The University of Manchester to help reduce the high risk of falls and physical decline in older people self-isolating during the COVID-19 Lockdown. When used, the evidence based app - called Keep-On-Keep-Up- will help reduce the thousands of injuries – which are often

Bone Mets Pan
After my
spinal
surgery/
fusion
healed I had not had chronic pain despite mets all over my body. Even after I fell and cracked my femur! Had rads for that but now have chronic pain. Sometimes in sides, left arm, upper back (I also had some rads to upper spine).

Early Retirement from Work.
I had a
spinal
fusion
on C4 C5 & C6 C7 last August but it hasn't really helped. Due to all this I am being retired from a 35 year career in local government, it's not what I want but I am coming to terms with the fact that as a male at 51 it is unlikely I will work again.

HAS ANYONE WITH PD HAD SPINAL CORD STIMULATOR IMPLANTED FOR POSTURE CORRECTION,PAIN MODULATION AND MOTOR FUNCTION?
Hi,friends,this procedure might be relatively new. I have read that it is similarly to DBS,but it targets the spinal cord instead of the brain.I was wondering,if anyone had this procedure done,please share your experience. How effective is it?Is it safer ,compared to DBS? Thanks in advance.

First PSA rise in three years, watch for doubling time? Or look into scans?
My husband (age 71) was diagnosed in Feb 2017, PSA 275, gleason 8, There were several enlarged lymph nodes in the iliac chain, obturator, and largest in the para-aortic measuring 3.3 cm. Bone scan was clear. Pelvic radiation in 2017. After 3 months of ADT (eligard) his psa dropped to .008. After 18 months

What is Cellulitis?
I had a
spinal
fusion
in that area in 1974. My condition worsened but I was too uncomfortable to go to the ER. After taking three 400 mg ibuprofen, then later three extra strength Tylenol, I was finally able to make the trip to the ER.

My back still ocassionally ached etc due to damaged discs but nothing unbearable. I have nerve damage from the herniation which affected the sensation in my lower leg, it is numb

Complex regional pain syndrome
Hi all! I’ve had CRPS for 12 years in my leg and managed to get it under control. However last April I had an operation for endometriosis and have now been told that I have CRPS inside. None of the medication the Drs have prescribed (I’ve tried all the normal ones) work for me, so I’ve asked for spinal

Facet joint injection or not in North East Wales.
Good morning everyone, I hope you are all having a good day. I have a question, are there any people living in North East Wales who have fibromyalgia and have had facet joint radio ablation or spinal cord stimulator fitted for arthritis. I have been told by the pain team that I can't have either because
