Medical Alert Necklace and a Fun Baclofen Fact
My new neurologist says the pumps are very reliable, and the only problem he's ever seen with them was when a surgeon accidentally the catheter that goes between the pump and the space around the
spinal
cord while performing
surgery

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.

Mechanical mitral valve enquiries
I'm looking to speak to anyone that has had a Mitral metal heart valve replacement and required another operation specifically
spinal
surgery
. Part of my new surgery requires me to have heperin injections instead of warfarin.

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

Does spinal fusion help take away severe pain from kyphosis due to broken vertebrae? (T10-T12)
I was wondering has anybody had this
surgery
the
spinal
fusion of T10 through T12 and does it end up taking any of the excruciating back pain away? Or is it just going to fix the curve and keep it from progressing further making me more hunched over?

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

on my
spinal

Denosumab vs Bisphosphonates
This has left me with Adult
Spinal
Deformity. This may require corrective
surgery
if my bone density improves. My question is about the treatment members have had, and if anyone is potentially in my situation. I have completed two years of Teriparatide.

Not existing QOL
I had a
spinal
surgery
in October 21, but I never was able to walk after that. The reason given was that there was a major spinal injury and nothing could be done. Going back to my prior MRI, I’m convinced that the surgery was too late to avoid the injury.

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

another cervical stenosis update!
He said he was “concerned” about the amount of bad wear to the discs, and if things are left as they are, things will get worse, and should my hubby have a bad fall then it could be fatal as there is nowhere for the
spinal
cord to go!

DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE, FORAMINA STENOSIS, FAILED BACK SURGERY
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. I eventually felt much better and stopped the gabapentine in 2022.
