Pain in the butt - Can't sit down

Susan: I also have a Tarlov cyst for which trouble sitting is a common symptom though doctor’s don’t often check for this via a sacrum MRI. I’m going to have surgery with a neurosurgeon in California, one of only several in the country who are specialists in this surgery. May I ask who are you seeing? Private message if you prefer.

westcom,
I saw Dr Feigenbaum in Dallas. I think I spelled it correctly. That was 6-7 years ago. The surgery scared me and the recovery time did too. Also, I did not care for him. The visit got off to a bad start and he knew that. Seemed to try to make up for it, but I need more of a connection and trust with a surgeon who is going to do that complex of a surgery on me.
I have decided to live with it. As I said, I have ‘butt cushions’ all over house. Sometimes it’s better than other times.
Are you seeing the surgeon in Sacramento? I absolutely wish you all the best. Please keep me posted. This is a complex problem. Just receiving a diagnosis is a challenge.
