Have you had an EMG in order to determine the cause of the pain/ Have you had an ex-ray or an MRI. I ask you this because you may be a candidate for an SCS (spinal cord stimulator). God bless you on your journey jokolk. Charles ka brotherchuckles80

Hi Brotherchuckles80,

I'm sorry to hear about all of your medical challenges. I hope you can make your life more harmonious and healthy.
You look pretty good for 80, judging by the picture you posted. I haven't had an EMG, but after falling off a roof/ladder in Jan '23, I did get a decent work-up. My lower back pain has been around since my 20's; It certainly didn't help when I fell and fractured 4 vertebrea in my spine (above where the fractures were). I need to f/u with neurology to find further investigation and sources of relief.
