I know all about the fact that you cannot cure it at this point but to prevent the pain from getting worse without entering my body through surgery or injections it's something I have to look into. They are using things and other Mayo Clinic such as the scrambler or tens and so I'm thinking out of the box and I am taking some of the medical ingredients that he's recommending such as vitamins and other stuff that is making me feel a lot better plus of course exercising. Mayo I think seriously caused by disease with a severe spinal leak that I had last year but what disappoints me is that they never try to diagnose me and even when we finally found out when I have there was nobody who said that would mean explain your condition except only one thing. Stimulator. If you listen to doctor tenant you said you not do the stimulator unless you're in later category which I am not. I'm going to try to prevent that category I hopefully what I'm doing and maybe this mat will help. Thanks for thinking of me as I think of you.

Hi, I remember using Tens, out-patient. It felt good, soothing. My experience and yours, getting a dr. to admit to Arachnoiditis would be a miracle. I had spinal fluid leak also. I had emergency surgery to remove a pain pump than caught, in the hospital, Serratia Bacterial Infection, in-patient for 2 wks on the step down ICU. If you can stand it try not to have any procedures unless an emergency. I do think of you too.
