I have had chronic pain in my spine and lower legs and feet for years. I have had 2 failed back surgeries and now have a pain stimulator with not much success. I have peripheral neuropathy and small fiber neuropathy thanks to my failed surgeries. I also have high inflammation markers and can't take anti-inflammatories due to kidney issues. I take 2 Tylenol arthritis twice daily with little relief. I suffer every day.

Marquis113. It sounds like you could be my double. I don't find Tylenol Arthritis very helpful either. My PMR has me on 50 mg Tramadal 3 times per day. Since I do not have pain standin and sitting, I will take one, two, or three at bedtime. It is not as addictive as some pain medications are, however it can cause constipation. Small consequence for pain relief. I also have a scs in my Lumbar which has given me 100% relief in that area. I do still periodically receive injections for my Thorax, Cervix, and the area at the top of my tailbone. Do you receive any treatments beyond the scs? I hope the info that I have given you helps a bit. If you would like to call me, I can be reached at 805-551-8734. God bless you. brotherchuckles80
