I'm anxious to learn more about shortcomings of MRI in imaging nerves, as you are @IndianaScott. Libraries at NIH carry little on the subject, and what is there comes from sports medicine. In some of the articles/comments, there is mention of more use of ultrasound because MRI images aren't definitive enough. "Nerve entrapment" is the condition discussed, and it occurs when nerves are bound to muscles, ligaments, and fascia tissues, which may not stand out in contrast to nerves on an MRI image. Mayo mentions hydrodissection only in connection with ophthalmology treatment of misshapen cornea.

Thanks for shareing so you have pain from depression amd it caused symptoms like Parkinson. I just spent 9 days at mayo in Minnesota with my client she went for her pain and her feet are bowed in and she can not walk she has other thing charlotte Doctors have diagnosed her with and mayo had a different view. They say it may be from stress which I found very hard to believe she had tremors spansisity and is very weak at times . And the list goes on . We go back in October for a mussel disorder and he thinks that al she needs is physically therapy which she did in charlotte . He said her brain needs to tell her feet to walk and they will fix them shelf .have never heard stress causing this much crazy stuff.

Thank you Colleen, I will check all the groups you mentions and look forward to learning from them and their journey through life with it's pain and the walk of being alone in such times in life. I thought about joining this group for a long time, wasn't sure if I would fit in I guess, but I thank God I did. And thank you for your hard work in making this possible. JJ

Kim, as I mentioned a few days ago- I really appreciate everything you shared, How does the (In Person Support Group work?) do you talk about all the subjects that's shared in the group now-or one area of health problems? Thank you for sharing that idea- I will wait and see what the director thinks- I'm very new at this and don't want to come across that I know more than others- I need to learn from all of you. Thanks JJ

I know this is centered around however, I am epileptic, Chiari Malformation, basically my brain (cerebellum) part is falling out, 3 cadaver bones in my neck and constant pain. I have been checking some if the medications I have been on should at the very most all killed me. All because they didn't know how to fix my problem. I'm still fighting.<br>Sorry to enterupt your situation. I just am getting so depressed that I always wonder why it wasn't me instead of my mom.<br>

donnak- thanks for sharing and don't feel you are enterupting, your pain and health issue is just as important than anyone else, I'm sorry for such pain- I can't imagine how painful that must be. Would you mind sometime sharing more about your Mom and the painful feelings that surrounds your health. Please don't think I'm being to forward with such a request- it's only if you wish to talk, and please know you will be in my prayers tonight and that you have some peace and less pain- we all need a break from the pain we all our suffering from.JJ

Oh, donnak69, I feel you need people to love you, since the medical community does not know how to respond. to your medical problem. I do hope that you find some peace with meditation and prayer, as inadequate as that siims at this time. I send hugs, peace, and help soon..... @ladyjane85

Yes, boy I agree more than words can say, I know God loves me beyond words, however I believe He made us to have real friendships and the love of true friends and family- So many times these days many expect you ( to take care of you " Period " ) and if you need a real caring friend, some believe your weak, or to needy, that we should suck it up and not asking for such thinks-when all your looking for is someone to sit with at times, to listen and for them to share as well. I know I do or life is even harder. Thanks for sharing something we all need and have a hard time saying so ??
