Have you ever had epidurals? They helped me in the beginning before my condition got serious enough for surgery. I also took a 10 dose of steroids for inflammation. I hate them but they helped a bit. At least it's a temporary fix to help ease pain.
I need 2 hip replacements too. I'm putting THAT off as long as I can tolerate the constant pain.
I hope the docs find something to ease your agony. I'll be thinking of you.
Thanks! :)
Yes, I guess the result was not too bad! Will discuss it with my doctor tomorrow, and with the neurosurgeon next week, of course.
No, never tried acupuncture and epidurals so far. The problem is that the health insurances usually don't pay for it, so my options are limited.
Karen, hope you won't need the hip replacements too soon! Good luck!
