Here...Squirrel,<BR/>You're welcome for tip on neurontin. <BR/><BR/>Here is the bad news also gleaned from experience. Beginning in 1993 I began to have increasing pain in the area (lumbar) you refer to and "manned up" and continued on working like a mad man 18 hour days. It is this injury which eventually got me declared disabled permanently and retired at age 46.<BR/><BR/>By the time I saw the surgeon I had been through tremendous amounts of physical therapy, traction and, all of the rest, to no good conclusion. The left leg pain would not abate and I could not stand on it or walk, seriously I was fixing cars working on one leg when I had to and sitting when I could.<BR/><BR/>The L4/L5 disc was pushing so hard against the Dura (cover for the spinal cord) that the sciatic nerve was impinged and that being the main nerve in the leg, the one from which all others branch out of, was the reason I could not walk or stand. <BR/><BR/>L4/L5 had to have the prolapsed disc totally removed, bone taken from my hip and the two verts fused. <BR/><BR/>The pain in the leg relief was immediate, 18 hours after surgery I was up and walking further and more pain free than I had been in years. But I had let it go too long and have and will always have residual affect from that nerve.<BR/><BR/>This surgery was done in '00. But it put a permanent 15 pound weight restriction on what I can pick up and now 8 years and two major auto accidents later I am having more problems in the neck and the lumbar area (I have fusions in both).<BR/><BR/>I had a job requiring strenuous manual physical labor which is why my employer forced me into retirement 12 years sooner than I wanted. They just wanted to be free of the liability *shrug* I adapted.<BR/><BR/>The treatments now are way beyond what I ever could have imagined. In two days I am going to have some of the nerves in my left side neck burned apart. The the back of the neck then the right side, then the lumbar area may need a different type of treatment which is the installation of a battery pack to deliver a constant electro stimulation to mask the chronic pain.<BR/><BR/>Long story short, skip all the traction, get the fusion(s), save the nerve and move on, go back to work (unless you're a construction worker or other type career.)<BR/><BR/>The fusion is not a decision to be taken lightly but while you may get temporary relief from the current prolapses, I will tell you that the walls of the disc are weak and getting weaker now and they will continue to bulge when you move at the wrong time in the wrong way then the choice is made for you and you are stuck with more of an emergency type situation. <BR/><BR/>Best find a very good neurosurgeon (not an orthopedist!!!!!!!!!!) now and have it done rather than suffer off and on for years more.<BR/><BR/>*sigh* I will admit, that this has been one of the less pleasant paths my physical feet have traveled. Yet before the second accident (07) the lumbar pain was a simple ache (level 2-3) and bearable and the use of neurontin had been lessened to 600mg a day.<BR/><BR/>This is my story and I am sticking to it. You now can see a bit into the future and make what decisions now, you eventually are going to make later.<BR/><BR/>Peace<BR/><BR/>markthe walking manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058913927297370740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35697944.post-44858564205394834952008-04-16T10:00:00.000+08:002008-04-16T10:00:00.000+08:00ruth,Thanks.
