Arachnoiditis: Looking to talk with others

My husband was diagnosed with lumbar adhesive arachnoiditis a few weeks ago. He had lumbar fusion 4 years ago, then started developing pain a few months ago and has since had several epidural steroid injections, and his pain had gotten much worse. So we got an MRI a few weeks ago and it definitely showed adhesive arachnoiditis which has such a poor prognosis. So of course we are looking for some kind of treatments and are also having trouble finding an authority on Arachnoiditis. We are considering a spinal nerve stimulator, but I'm worried about any type of procedure on his back - could it make the scarring and arachnoiditis even worse? Anyone have experience with the neurostimulators? Many thanks...

Please contact Dr Tennant in West Covina. He treated many patients with AA. He has written books and held conferences on arachnoiditis. Google arachnoiditishope.com, and you will find a lot of information. Please message me again if you have a problem.
