Guest guest Posted December 4, 1999 Report Share Posted December 4, 1999 Welcome e! Ohhhh...those lovely epidurals! Yes, I been there and done that, but didn't stay long enough to get a T-shirt! Also the trigger point injections. Was out of my mind with a migraine one day and even allowed them to put those needles in my scalp! Trust me it was shoot me I am dying time or it would not have happened. I almost passed out and went white and sweaty. All this time I am asking only for a tiny pain pill and told that I needed the injections first...ALL of them they had!! I did not walk, I ran out of his office, trust me! I know of a lady up the road who is headed for a wheelchair as result of an epidural gone awry! This wasn't the answer for her either was it? She has had to give up her career...as a NURSE!! ????? Pain pain go away come again another day! Welcome aboard kiddo! Diane MICHAELE F COBB wrote: > > > Greetings, > I am new to this list and have been reading so many of your helpful > posts.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 1999 Report Share Posted December 4, 1999 Hi e, Welcome to the list. Unfortunately, FMS is not uncommon when you have a bunch of nerves disasterized. For some reason I have a feeling that your particular neurological problems might be at least partially solved as neurosurgery marches on. I gets more sophisticated every day. the problem, which you are well aware of, would be finding just where pain is being kicked off from. Sounds like your arm & neck nerves have been sufficiently disturbed to have left some irregularity somewhere. I would be surprised if someone with the damage & surgery you've had did not have resulting pain. I am not saying that you don't have FMS, but that maybe the origin of the headaches can be eventually found, and be correctable. You would need a medical wizard for that to happen, but there are some out there. I have high cervical damage also, & chose to avoid surgery. You are quite brave to have had the treatments you have had.
