Arachnoiditis: Looking to talk with others

Each person is unique, but I found that myofascial release aggravated my inflammation but that craniosacral and deep tissue massage helped it. I also use an infrared heating blanket, reflexology and essential oils which helps alot. I have also been vegan all my life so my blood work always comes back high in nutrients, and no evidence of clogged arteries. I eat alot of vegetables and healthy fats with no sugar without a lot of complex carbohydrates.It also keeps my weight stable which helps with my pain. Fortunately I spent my career as a nutritionist so I knew that was the best way for me personally was to continue to eat this way having an inflammatory process to deal with. Each person has to try what works for them. It is good to be able to share what works for us with others who suffer as we do and understand what our struggle is.

I'm fighting the best thing I'm doing for AA is to ride a bike every morning at least two miles and walk a mile. I feel the difference in my energy and less pain and I take a muscle relaxer at night which really helps. No opioids I need or I wish taken a Tramadol/APAP and the last two days I've taken none since I've been walking so much as well as stretching with what doctor Tennant instructions. KEEP MOVING!

I am taking in addition to excersise.
Prednisone 10mg
Magnesium citrate
Adaptive formula
High potency Serrap
Multiple vitamins. Get dr. Tennant handbook and it's all there. Don't know whether that's going to help or not but it's not go to hurt me.
