My name is Georgia and I'm from Atlanta, Ga. I have arachnoiditis. Pain for 10 years and getting worse last 2 years. I'm close to not being able to walk now. You al are right about doctors blowing you off. I'm so desperate for pain relief, but now with this "opioid"crisis, seems can't get much more than baby aspirin.
I'm housebound in a recliner now; can barely make it to kichen, then standing is so painful.my left leg is useless. Good to know other people understand. Our families get so tired of us talking about pain, but how can you not when it is so bad.
