Re: [Arachnoiditis] Need to understand what is Arach
Hi,
If I were you I would think twice about allowing anyone to inject you back or spine.
THAT CAUSES AND WORSENS ARACHNOIDITIS.
Since you are new to this you more than likely do as I and most others did, That is just go along with what the doctor say's to do but believe me. Most do not know how to treat ARACH.
Please find someone through a pain center that knows and understands ARACH. It is nothing to play with. They can make you worse and not even know that they are doing it. Injections of any kind are a no no to me and almost anyone with ARACH. There are some very informative sites on the Internet under www.Arachnoiditis.com Please look these over with a open mind for your own good.
I do not know everything but after over 100 doctors and 6 years of suffering, I have learned to at least follow my heart and not see any doctors that I do not feel very good about. If you have any doubt at all about a doctor, Get out of that office and do not go back. Your heart has a way of telling you the truth. I have had doctors that said they knew how to treat me and I later found out that even though it was a huge pain clinic, there were only 7 of us with ARACH. They had not a clue as to what to do for us and they just kept the pain killers coming until I did not know who I was. Please do not let this happen to you.
If I can help you in any way, please feel free to contact me.
