Re: newbie with pain flare
Thanks so much Charlie. I gets so frustrating and confusing. She did say that she was trying to break up some of the connective tissue then we would be doing internal work within the next couple of visits. Hermajesty-What type of treatment does your PT do on you. My pain flare is so much better thi...

Re: newbie with pain flare
That is one of those great classic PT lines, "It will hurt before it helps". Don't you believe it. I am not putting down PT's, in fact I have had a lot of benefit from PT and work with a PT. But I am putting down that line. If something causes a flare, that is a warning: Back off, that me...

Re: UNBELIEVABLE!!!
A mommy the note on your car reveals the prejudiced beliefs some people have about chronic pain. I agree more attention needs to be brought to this condition. Websites like this one are so important. GraceUnderFire's comment led me to look up the Invisible Disabilities Association . Here's their web...

Re: Surgery in Houston
My only query is does n't 'windowing' just mean cutting through the ligaments? I asked Dr. Conway about this when I saw him last month, as I was under the impression he would be creating a "window" to access the nerve. He said what he and Dr. Antolak do is NOT windowing. He basically said...

Re: Surgery in Houston
To be honest I don't really understand how they are doing this. If the nerve is compressed by the ligaments how is it possible to free them without cutting them completely and just making a small slice in the ligaments? I am not saying they are doing anything wrong I just don't understand how they ...

Re: VERY INTERESTING - DR. FILLER'S OFFICE ON MRN VS. 3T
After consulting other Dr's I have to say I am very unsure about the MRN. Dr Filler appears to have an appalling reputation. The MRN certainly does not seem to be highly regarded. I have to say I am skeptical of both scans discussed. The general consensus seems to be on the MRN that it is a gimmick ...

Re: confused about what to do with mri results/scar tissue?
Thanks for that Ali. Muscles start to become tight in response to an entrapment so it makes sense that the tissue can also start to constrict as well. Yes I have had the MRN but I am not convinced by it. Other Drs I have seen do not regard it very highly. My concern with the 3T is whether or not it ...

Re: confused about what to do with mri results/scar tissue?
She sent me a reply but I am still confused! She said to try a nerve block? What causes scar tissue, I thought it was from injections? I don't want even more injections!! Based on my report, I don't think that my pudendal nerve is entrapped? Firstly while the 3T is a very interesting development I ...

Re: Nantes Study on the ST and SS ligaments
Pierre said: Living with a lax sacroilliac ligament can be as problematic as PNE. Your pain is in the anus and back of the buttock, lower back and feets instead of more forward and deep in the perineum. Exchanging one problem for another is not better.i Another problem with this report is that pain...
