@blowerk1216 any other specific drugs for constipation. The 10 MG Oxy 4 times a day, plus the extreme pain over lumbosacral region, makes it very difficult etc Feel like a stuffed, bloated, ....When it swings over to bowel incontinence, i can't clean my self up & very dicey to go out in public. i have lost most of the feeling in my lower GI..... So i can't hold stool Overall, it's beyond a nightmare. My GI referral got messed up Too many snow birds here. Because of my fusion, i have much difficulty cleaning up & etc...I'm very depressed, but too many obstacles. But I'm trying to get help. Waitime for neuro, is at least 6 months Know it's futile, but i take senior fitness, chair yoga, have 1 to 1 with instructor. I used to be a work out junkie, was extremely active. but titanium makes everything extra difficult. Have a good PHD counselor.. My pain level is too high, i have to lay on my back, not able to turn over, bend etc.. Looking for a friend as well as advertise Have no real family or people able to assist. Thanks Lauren

@blowerk12 Do you know, if you have a spinal cord stimulator ? Do they ever give oral pain meds as well???Does the stimulator help with all the leg burning & the paresthesia's that accompany Arachnoiditis? I have severe & i also have torn rotator cuff, & don't want a new shoulder...i know that stimulator doesn't help shoulders Think it might help, but i would need some oral meds as well
