Hi there,

I live in Austin, TX and I am suffering severe chronic pain and
various disabling symptoms. I have had several spinal surgeries and
many injections and various imaging studies and treatments.

I may have Adhesive Arachnoiditis, but I am not diagnosed. My
current diagnosis is "Degenerative Disc and Bone
Disease"(osteoarthritis), and "Failed Back Surgery Syndrome".

Since much of my complaints of pain are "subjective" my insurance
company is refusing my LTD claim. My doctors and surgeons seem
clueless when I ask about AA. I need to find a doctor that can provide
an accurate diagnosis and tell me whether I have AA or specifically
what I have.

I don't travel very well, so if there's a doctor in Austin I'd be
happy to find them. Otherwise, I am willing to travel for an
examination. I also can provide MRIs and CTs by mail prior to
consultation.

Any help finding a Doctor would be appreciated. You can post the
info here, or email me at dktmessenger@...

Have a great week!
