Hi, I ve been struggling with lower back problems for about 7 yrs. Have had many drugs, PT(now on maintenance program), epidurals, and find relief at times, but increasing symptoms & Pain. Have had numbness/tingling/elec-type nerve pain increasingly for past couple years. My primary care physician sent me to a neurologist about 2 yrs ago, and we ve experimented w/many drugs that I cannot tolerate side effects. What next?
Hi deniseferrand looking at the history it seems that you have chronic lumbar articular pain with disc degeneration .have you done MRI scan of the back.???kindly consult a spine surgeon / orthopedic surgeon.
