Thanks for your video, Dr. I believe I have AA. I just wish I could get a post-surgery MRI following my L4-L5 discectomy in March 2020 (which was supposed to be left sided but ended up being bi-lateral). My surgeon refuses to give me a post-MRI even though I am in worse chronic pain post-surgery, falling over again, taking prescribed Fentanyl and walking with crutches for last 18 months, unable to work... I live in the UK and had surgery under the NHS. I'm baffled🤷♀️
I totally understand 🫂. I'v been in a living hell for 10+ years now. I had a 3 level lumbar fusion with rivison on L4 5 in March of 22. My pain is unbelievable! I live in the bed now. I haven't driven since last February. Pain medicine isn't touching my pain. I know it's my si joints 💯. But there's something else going on.
OK so my question is this... Are you treating the neuroinflammation inside the spinal cord with meds that cross the BBB before and AFTER surgery? As with any procedure, wound, trauma to the body.. Inflammation will occur! The problem with NI inside the spinal cord is if not treated then AA adhesive Arachnoiditis can/does progress. The patients who did poorly after surgery.. Perhaps try treating their pain, NI inside the spinal cord and using meds for nerve regrowth? More info on this is at arachnoiditishope.com 😉 I have had AA for over 31yrs now in thoracic, and over 26yrs in lumbar from epidural during labor which BTW can be another cause of AA. It took me 22yrs before I was properly dx with AA. I also have Tarlov Cyst Disease. Have you had any benefits with treating patients who have AA and Tarlov Cyst Disease?? Thanks so much for this video!! Very informative.
