Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. Not to be confused with the Hindenburg Certainty Principle: "With what's floatin' us, I'm certain we're headed for trouble in Lakehurst."
LOL— some esoteric references here— Lakehurst, “Oh, the Humanity” , for those of us of a certain age. One thing is certain from the Hindenburg— don’t try to land a hydrogen filled dirigible in a thunderstorm!
Speaking of pain, I had a caudal injection to help with Adhesive Arachnoiditis pain about 6 days ago. Has had good effect! Done with imaging and contrast.
have you tried calmare/scrambler tx for your neuropathy?

Hi Mike @10247mylife, Welcome to Connect. It sounds like you might also be dealing with chronic pain. Have you found anything that helps?
Hi I’m Debbie from England West Yorkshire..uk..
I’m 42 and have fibromyalgia/pots syndrome/psoriatic & rheumatoid arthritis…oh and I’ve just started the perimenopause too 😭 the pain affects me daily and every week guaranteed I have a flare up and I’m bedbound for 2-3 days, it’s horrendous! The chronic pain and fatigue, so debilitating. I often get depressed 😔 especially on my bad days usually when I have a flare up. It’s frustrating because in my mind, I want to get up and get things done so if I do get a good hour I’ll blitz the house but then I end up paying for it when the flare starts! Just need to learn to pace myself…
I stay hydrated and rest whenever it’s can, so important to listen to our bodies..I’m on pregablin, nefopam and codeine & also (mirtazerpine antidepressants).
I take all the vitamins b12, c & d as well as magnesium as that’s really helping! I drink electrolytes too and they give me a boost, make me feel more normal and function better…
(needed as I’ve got pots syndrome) nice to meet you all, I’m so happy I’ve found such a lovely group, who understands exactly how chronic pain affects us physically and mentally. Other people just don’t get it xx
You’ve got this 🙌 we’re all here to help each other get through it day by day…xx
