Re: Lumbosacral pain

Thanks Patg ,
the comments you wrote were helpful.I did lose my kind spirit for a while after the woman I helped went to court on behalf of her crazy husband.They were drinking while taking a prescription medication intended for anxiety something similar to valium.The guy only got 20 days in jail for the crime.I appreciate the advice about the lying down ct scan that makes perfect sense .I will try to have another one done while standing .I also heard of a live x-ray called an arthrogram or flouroscopically guided ct scan
My mom is your age and has arthritis in her spine really bad.I hope you can find a solution to your pain or at least a Dr. willing to listen and help with long term presciptions for pain .I have yet to find one who will despense a strong pain killer for more than 10 days.I don't know if you have tried Vioxx or celebrex but she says they help her alot.thanks again Audrey Dunn
