Epidural injections? What happened to me can happen to you too.

If you are thinking about getting an epidural injection in your spine I ask you to watch this five minute video.

I have been living with Chronic back pain for twenty six years. Twenty five of those years due to arachnoiditis. And all because I received a mylagram the day before my laminectomy.  The surgery didn't help either. And so the pain persist. It's relentless. And there are days that I just want to scream. But I can't because it hurts too much.

The day I got that mylagram I knew something was wrong. I screamed and told the people who were administering that mylagram that something was wrong. The pressure felt like an elephant was sitting on my back. And as the table moved it only got worse. I had no idea I was going to have live with the consequences of that mylagram for the rest of my life. The technicians that administered that mylagram laughed and told me to calm down. Nice ha.

Now I live each and every day with Arachnoiditis. Living with chronic pain with no end in sight is not easy. But with an amazing pain management team I have quality of life. I'm living the best life possible. But winters are really hard on me. So we have decided to retire in Florida. There's only one problem,  Trying to find pain management in Florida.  I've been hearing horror stories about the doctors and the pharmacist. Yes I was shocked too.

 I don't want to look back in twenty years and say I should have gone to Florida.

But in order to get my dream I'm kind of stuck. If anyone is from Florida and knows a pain management doctor that's legit please send me an e-mail at aedmonds315@gmail.com.

Think about that epidural before you wind up like me. Doctors that give epidurals only care about the money. Getting any kind of injection into your spine is not worth the risk. Believe me it can happen to you too..
