My Back prproblems starstarted in the Military
My back problems began while on active duty in the Coast Guard. They diagnosed me with degenerative disc disease and osteoporosis. In May of 2019 I had a Lamondectomy, and in 2020 I had a discectomy. In November, 2023 I had a tubular decompressioin. This comming Fall I will be having a spinal fusion.

Post spinal fusion surgery
2 weeks tomorrow after surgery to fuse 7 vertebrae after Prostate Cancer spread to my T 10. Radiation caused a compression fracture and weakness in nearby vertebrae. Just wondering if anyone else has had this done. Pain medication Palexia and Oxyndone have hardly impacted. Spinal surgeon says pain should

1. I attended my 1st PC in 2012 (Cambridge) following spinal decompression which was successful but I also had fibromyalgia. 2. Transferred to 2nd Peterborough PC due to travel problems. Sat through excruciatingly painful group sessions relating to the Biopsychosocial Model and Mindfulness. Course

Possible Outcome of Severe Spinal Stenosis
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.

sciatica
Drs say I have
spinal
stenosis
and need
spinal
surgery. Don’t want that. Has anyone gotten relief from anything else. Did epidurals. They are hit and miss. Thanks.

Methotrexate advice and other things
I am waiting for the results of an MRI scan to see if I have
spinal
stenosis
. Although I am grateful for the pain course at the local Nuffield gym , the repetitive nature of the exercises was not helpful probably because the inflammation was not under control.

Surgery Today!
I’m having spinal surgery today in my neck. So glad it’s finally happening but rather nervous too. I have cervical stenosis and myelopathy so I’m hoping this operation will stop the progression of spinal cord damage 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻. Has anyone else had this happen. Not sure if it’s RA related or not.

Spinal Nerve Damage
After MRIs and xrays, diagnosed with lower back
spinal
stenosis
. But no solution offered. I pestered my GP to refer to orthopedic surgeon. But all I got was injections that did nothing. My 4th appointment, 2 weeks ago, was different.

iron lab results 10 weeks post iron infusion
I have had four iron infusions in the last 2 years. 10 weeks ago I received Injectafer 1000 mg with so-so results. I had seen a hematologist at my neurologist/Sleep specialist’s urging out of his concern for my out of whack lab numbers. The hematologist was not concerned. I gave my sleep, specialist

Heartened to know I am not alone in the struggles caused by pramipexole
I have had RLS and PLMD as long as I can remember. I’m sure all of those nights I struggled with symptoms as a child that were brushed off as growing pains…RLS. My mom suffers mildly. Unfortunately, both of my daughters also have many challenges that began as teens. What I’ve been through is so complex

DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE, FORAMINA STENOSIS, FAILED BACK SURGERY
I repeated MRI which showed several bilateral foramina
stenosis
. I was offered
spinal
fusion. I had a spinal fusion in 2018. I recovered from the surgery but the back pain and leg pain in d form of pins and needles continued but this time a lower dose of gabapentine made me to be pain free.

Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
If you develop CIPN during chemotherapy, and it becomes permanent, can you subsequently find it has progressed to another site some years after the original diagnosis? I finished 6 cycles of Docetaxel in October 2019. Once the stabbing pains and feeling of being electrocuted had worn off, I was left

I’ve also got Severe
Spinal

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!

Finding joy and peace in God and His beautiful creations
Just had my 16th and 17th malignant skin cancer removed since receiving FCR in 2018 despite following all the recommendations My back pain that became radicular pain is due to some severe
spinal
stenosis
and a large herniated disc.

Hi folks, I’ve been posting on this platform for years, looking for answers and sharing my own experiences. I’ve had severe T for over 30 years. There have been incidences that have caused my T to increase. It’s either a bump to the head or the after affects of looking up, like when I’m painting a

Denosumab vs Bisphosphonates
Dear all, I will keep this brief so that I don't bore anyone! I am 55 yr female, and to my horror, fractured T12 out of the blue one morning two and a half years ago. Little did I think it was a fracture, so I walked and went to the gym for 4 days. This is with evolving neurological signs. Anyway,
