Arachnoiditis: Looking to talk with others

Hi, I'm in VA too, in the Roanoke area. Where are you located? My lumbar mri from last Nov said "mild enhancement of nerve root at cauda equina, suggestive of arachnoiditis". So, haven't officially been dx, but am feeling the symptoms. How are you doing? I hope you're doing well, being new to all this I'm trying to learn as much as I can but having trouble coming to grips with it all 🙁

Research Dr Forrest Tenant. He is the guru on arachnoiditis. He has started a foundation for research.

Had an MRI on Friday and saw the results. Of course, I don't understand the medical explanation. After a Discectomy and Laminectomy from a neurosurgeon, I was hoping to get some relief, but now have numbness and tingling down both legs. I use to have cronic pain on the left side of my back from sciatica, spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease. These are new feelings and I am hoping to get an appointment soon to discuss MRI.
