Firstly I must state that I live in England in the UK.

Although I have had this pain since 1981 (after a motorcycle accident and subsequent upper spinal surgeries & mielograms!!) It has only really been over the last five years or so that my mind and body seems to want to give up the constant battle with the pain. It seems that the pain occurs more frequently and is more intense than ever. I did manage... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (alan) http://arachnoiditissupport.yuku.com/topic/689 Wed, 15 Jul 2009 06:27:38 GMT <![CDATA[ Some good news - FINALLY!!! ]]> http://arachnoiditissupport.yuku.com/topic/676/t/Some-good-news-FINALLY-.html feeds@yuku.com (Flycatcher3) http://arachnoiditissupport.yuku.com/topic/676 Sat, 12 Apr 2008 06:18:22 GMT <![CDATA[ Happy New Year ]]> http://arachnoiditissupport.yuku.com/topic/516/t/Happy-New-Year.html
As for resolutions, I made one years ago that I make each year, and that is not to make any resolutions at all. It is much easier than trying to lose weight/excercise/eat less/quit smoking/be kinder/have a house/etc that everyone tries for, and fails to do after a couple of weeks.

Peace Out.

I have a question for all of you. Do any of you get sharp, shooting pains down the nerve? It feels like lightning enters at my lower back and goes straight out my toes.

I feel a bit safer to respond to messages, and will definately be a more active member.
Thank you for the hard work, and have a "painfree" day!

Now I'm out of smokes as well. Can't afford to get them, but nobody can live with me if I don't have them.

On top of this horrifying AA that I`m suffering from, I had a new diagnoses last week: Prominant Lordosis of the lumber spine!!!!!! With nerve involvement.
So, no wonder that I cannot function at all, I can`t walk from pain, cannot sit or stand or even lie down. In fact, cannot do anything without crying with pain.
Does anyone have this condition as well?
Feeing a bit lost
