I was told about this a few days ago by the APP (Advanced Physio Practitioner) at my GP surgery, (It may well be already on Lupus UK somewhere).

Spinal Cord Stimulator
I am waiting to begin a trial for the Spinal Cord Stimulator. The doctor will put an external wire going up my spinal cord and have a battery pack on my back for a few days. The Stimulator is supposed to stop the lumbar pain from reaching the brain. If it works, the doctor will install an internal stimulator

Vagal Nerve Stimulation (tVNS) Research Summary
Some definitions for clarity. Neuromodulation, stimulating nerves (usually with electricity) to change (hopefully improve) or control their function. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a form of neuromodulation. Neuromodulation can be invasive, requiring surgery (like DBS) or noninvasive which provides

Spinal fusion question
My adult daughter anterior had L5/S1
spinal
fusion
surgery with instrumentation 3 months ago for excruciating and longstanding pain from a prolapsed disc. She has made fantastic progress and is practically pain free.

Anybody Know Anything About "Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide" (NAD+) Supplement?
Somebody told me they were taking NAD+. I was surprised you could even by NAD+. I thought everybody took NAD precursors (NA, NR) but I see Amazon sells NAD+ https://www.amazon.com/Liposomal-Supplement-Absorption-Nicotinamide-Alternative/dp/B09V6X1PWM?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&smid

Meds after spinal fusion
My fusion was 11 weeks ago and I still need an occasional dose of my prescription medication. I have heard that otc meds such as aleve and ibuprofen can interfere with bone grafting, so I have been avoiding them. Surgeon said the otc's were okay to take at this point but I would rather wait until I

Mindfulness
More recently I have been looking at Mindfulness again but specifically for chronic pain as an old
spinal
fusion
is getting very painful and I can't walk further than about 50 yards. This with PMR is not easy. My endocrinologist says I must expect to stay on prednisolone for the rest of my life.

Trihexyphenidyl medication for PD
Hello, my husband with tremor dominant PD has been prescribed Trihexyphenidly (aka Artane, Trihexane and Tritane) by his neurologists to try and reduce his tremors. He is currently on Madopar and its not really helping. Does anyone have any experience with this drug? Many thanks.

Failed Back Surgery
In 2017 I had a Laminectomy for Severe Spinal Stenosis in L3/4/5. The operation was successful and for 3/4 months I was completely pain free for the first time in years! In 2018 I had a bad fall and this resulted in having a Rotator Cuff Repair which was successful but by now my spinal pain was back

Spinal Cord Stimulater
I have a condition called Sensory Ganglionopathy and suffer severe nerve pain throughout my body 24/7. I am currently on Fentanyl patches which help a little and recently had two courses of Lidocaine infusions neither of which helped. I am considering discussing a spinal cord stimulator with my pain

Post spine fusion pain management
Hi all 13 years ago I was diagnosed with degenerative discs, facet joint disease causing immense low back and sciatic pain. I went for a disc decompression and waited for it to heal, unfortunately pain increased so I went back to the consultant, we took another MRI and to his surprise he could no longer
