@sammymatt you sound like an awesome family. Don’t forget to try acupuncture, acupressure, and yoga. Another thought is to make sure you’ve been to an orthopedic spine surgeon. They see a lot of things that others don’t. He could have a cyst pressing on a nerve or a desk that’s partially herniated ( These are very simple things to deal with once somebody has figured it out). Just hang in there and do your homework trying to isolate where the pain comes from. A good pain management doctor will palpate and locate the pain. A good radiologist will read the MRIs. You have to say to the doctors.(if they try to brush you off.) that they cannot leave him suffering and if they don’t know what the problem is, they need to make an analysis and consult to another doctor referral. You also might want to try a research hospital or a research university. I am at Ucsd and they teach the next generation of doctors. They are more patient with their patients and take on complicated cases to teach the students.
