What does the pain feel like? I’ve received an MRI report from the radiologist that says I have adhesive arachnoiditis. I’ve tried to address this with my neurosurgeon but he has repeatedly gaslit me everytime I asked him to address it. I’m in horrible pain and it’s beginning to spread to my other leg and genital region. I strongly believe I am symptomatic due to this condition but I’m wondering if there is any distinction in symptoms from sciatica. I’m trying to tell the difference between the two.

Chronic severe unimaginable pain does not magically go away without painkillers. All the epidurals ,shots,stimulators and tens units have failedcountlesshard core back AND NECK pain Sufferers ! Dr Forest Tenant is the only Dr in the world that researcher that studied Chronic Pain forhalfof hislife being around 80 yearsold.Hesgot the best and only true knowledge of where the pain began and spreaded to and why. He is atrue believer that opioids can be taken for high pain for many many years without causing anything else to happen to the body asthe invasive epiduralsthat do harm to the spine not helping the pain. Please watch his many videos. Chronic pain and Dr Forest Tenant.Get real compassion and knowledge about painkillers and pain. Society has set back pain meds since 2015. Opioids were given bad names and untrue stories .

I definitely will be trying your oil spray or dry as soon as I'm able to get the ingredients. I've started developing arthritis in my thumb and finger on my right hand and my wrists hurt quite often.

I am right now trying acupuncture. Though my insurance doesn't cover it, my insurance does cover the provider who is giving me the acupuncture treatments. So I may end up getting a discount. Not sure if this is going to be a long-term help but I'm giving it a try it which was strongly recommended by my primary care physician as this doctor who specializes in it is in her practice. I do have some money set aside that even if my insurance doesn't cover it I will for a while be able to go to these appointments. I've only been to two so I can't say for sure it's helping yet. But she has been able to short-circuit and Target some of my migraines when I've been in her office these last two times. I went today for my second visit.

God bless your daughter ❤

I am so glad you have a natural product you can turn to for pain relief 😊

Man that's tough. You want to feel your best at your reunion and to be in so much pain. I am so sorry you went through that 😢

So sorry that you experienced that at the election board. That's tough 😢

I have arach too same from a bothced epidural during childbirth but I didn’t get blood patched it was a trainee who administered it first three times wrong then when the consultant tried he got it right first time. I was only blocked one side. My medical records same fibromyalgia I had to get a spine dr outside the uk to diagnose me. I ended up with breast cancer cause I had a reaction to hrt patches after only 3/4 weeks. Please be careful with taking medicines I got so many allergies due to the AA food also. You’re so right you’re an inspiration thank you ❤

Do you have flare ups that come out of nowhere? Like flare ups from hell

Where on your spine did you get EI? I’m sorry I have Tarlov Disease and live in pain .

Have you ever considered filing for social security disability? All the many years you worked when you were able to, it seems you would qualify.

Absolutely

Thank you ❤

This was perfect timing. Thank you sooo much. I’m a big fan of your other channel. So glad I found this one as well. ❤

Good advice to hear. I have arthritis almost everywhere, but I want to stay active

Your very motivational. Keep it up Bonita!! You are a strong, lovely lady. You will persevere ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I am the same way in that my husband and family is right there with me. My husband prays for me and has shed tears over my fibromyalgia 😢❤

I love your fight and don't give up attitude. You have been an inspiration to me ❤

I will keep you in my prayers as you battle your often times debilitating condition and also now your fibromyalgia ❤

Though I went walking yesterday my feet started hurting. I kept going till I was done the 2.4 miles. I woke up this morning with pain in my left heel. Won't give up or stop walking ❤😊

Doing the dishes is an impossibility correct ?

Epidural for something. Besides child birth ? Definitely with fibromyalgia screen for Tarlov cyst. RUclips is going nuts deleting comments on this channel

Hahaha 🤣 how am I feeling? I’m trying to live day by day as best as possible. Seeing the beauty in life where possible. Movement causes pain, but feeling pain and experiencing pain just by not moving and just being still is funny, right?! Nope! 🤷‍♀️ Distraction, certain physical activity and a positive mindset and just pushing through helps me. Take care Bonita. 😊

Also of note: not only is there no cure, there is no treatment. And it, as my experience has shown, is progressive. It's been 30 years now. I have nothing good to tell you. The last doctor who gave me my diagnosis said simply, "There is no cure. There is no treatment. Learn to live with it."

1:56 In England lidocaine is infused in a vein. Patches are imperfect. Leak channels turn off comments . I believe because they're lying. You have my sympathy paratheshia and AA. is the definition of a full plate plus motherhood. I'm aware people in comments here are basically in your boat from an epidural steroid injection gone wrong. Its true what they're saying. However those shots can bail you out too. #1 Ieak expert on earth says steroid injections can't mitigate leaks. My experience says he's wrong about that . AA protocol says nsaids. Not every day. Pretty sure that's correct. The specific procedures are your's if you want. Just ask.

Hello I have recently been diagnosed with arachnoiditis four months ago by my MRI. I experience severe back pain, leg pain, and temporary paralysis I'm scheduled for a major spinal surgery next week and I scared

Hi Bonita, I have arachnoid it is 50 years . Yea, Fidty years. Now I am facing a Hip replacement.

I am 29 and had L5-S1 Discectomy and laminectomy 4 months ago because the herniated disc was very painful. After completing surgery I have had nothing but complications including a post operative bleed and fluid collection. My neuro surgeon keeps saying i am opioid shopping and nothing is wrong even when the radiologist pointed out that i am developing arachnoiditis.. My neuro surgeon and i have been going back and forth for a few months now and she just does not believe me. I took my images to the university hospital here where the neurologist confirmed that I indeed have arachnoiditis of the arachnoid and the left and right nerve roots. I am so sick of doctors being so conceded and not willing to admit some of the things they do don't work. This is giving me migraines, visual snow, lethargy, nausea, TERRIBLE pain, insomnia ect. I am sorry to hear what you are dealing with.. This healthcare system is a joke

Thank you Bonita for sharing your struggles & being an encouragement to us! ❤

Bless you and your husband. I’m a widow and doing this alone is something I would not wish on my worst enemy. It’s a horrible existence.

I deal with migraines as well. Have since I was a teenager

Good days are definitely a blessing from God. Praise the Lord for that

You're so right about trying to block out the pain. I've had to teach myself over the last several years with my fibromyalgia to try to sleep even though I'm in pain. Even if the pain wakes me up I try to block it out and fall back to sleep. It's been a training and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Thank you for making this video Bonita, thank you for talking about chronic pain it is definitely a reality for many of us❤

So sorry. I had a Myelgram last Friday. I have multiple lumbar issues as usual. However there was something new on the report. Chronic Adhesive arachnoidiitis. I’m like what the hell is that. Apparently the leg weakness and bladder issues are being caused by AA. Monday my urologist was ruling out my bladder as the problem. He gets the scope is and what do we see? A blob of bladder cancer. So over two days I find out about my AA and bladder cancer. My brain is swimming. I’m not sure what to worry about first. I have surgery the 28th to remove the tumor. I still haven’t heard from my neurosurgeon about my spine issues. I’m so confused. Take care

Great to hear from you again Bonita. Appreciate your efforts in getting the word out about living with chronic pain.

Do you know if adhesive arachnoditis is a disability.

I have vision problems blurred vision. I have all the stuff you have.

I wake up freaking out from the pain. What should I do?

I take alprazalom. Is that similar to amytripiln. Does gabepentin help you. It doesn't me. 90 milligrams of cymbalto doesn't work for me. It makes me nauseated and stomach pain. I'm cutting back. What's your opinion. Thanks hun

No one cares stop moaning about it now as I said no one cares

I just got diagnosed with arachnoiditis but this chronic pain is since 9 years ago 😢

I HATE the gaslighting and lying they do. They cause this most of the time and blame it on us or just act stupid about it as if they're dumbfounded.

I noticed that when I don’t take omega 3. I hurt. I also take collagen powder daily and use bone broth as well. I’ve heard great things about serrapeptase. Also listening to videos from dr Mandel the motivationaldoc and Dr. Berg has been helpful. Oh yes and I’ve heard fasting works really great as well

I enjoy your videos

Hi Bonita, my name is John. I finally rc’d my AA diagnosis about 9 years ago. I’m trying to collect what meds everyone is on to see if we can’t find any doctors approaching this disease the same way. Dr. Forest Tennant is by far the leading doctor in America regarding AA. Unfortunately, he is now retired but you can find his materials on- line as well as on here. As for vision I have “some” bluriness that I thought was from needing new glasses. I got new glasses but still I go blurry every now and again. Most of my pain is from my diaphragm and below except for the damage being done to my brain from this. Constant overworked and never at rest because it’s processing pain where there’s no injury (like the feeling of a twisted ankle). There’s nothing technically wrong with the ankle it’s the nerves telling the brain pain signals. Two minutes later your ankle is better but then your leg bones feel like they’re being crushed. Mine moves all over and is constant, horrific and I would not wish this on my worst enemy. I am always here to help with questions you may have. Maybe I can answer but I’m trying to collect “victims” of this disease so we can work together to see what works. In Michigan, I have not found one doctor who hasn’t said, “Mr. Thompson I’m sorry but you seem to know more about this disease than we do.” It sucks. As I once read on a med journal “this disease comes with the pain of cancer but without the relief of death.” I know this sucks to hear but if you need answers, help or just someone with AA to talk to I’m available as I’m on disability.

Hi Bonita. Someone in the comments over on the channel "Centsible Living with money mom" just posted a comment that u have videos on chronic pain. I already watch your frugal living videos & am subscribed to u but I had no idea u have done chronic pain videos! I'm so happy I saw the comnent.
