I am a worker compensation patient with a condition called failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS). Everytime I see that term, I think I have somehow failed when really I secretly blame my surgeon. The worker compensation case manager always makes me feel like I'm milking the system. I can't help what happened to me. I'm trying to get better. I heard there is a spinal stimulator that could help. Should I ask about this? 7 weeks 3 days ago 54
How do doctors decide what treatment recommendations to make for patients with a first episode of low back pain? I saw a doctor and got no treatment whatsoever. My husband saw the same guy for his backache and suddenly he's getting X-rays, blood work, drugs, and physical therapy. Is there some kind of bias against women or am I being overly sensitive? 7 weeks 3 days ago 43
I just spent $125.00 on an office visit with a physician for my low back pain. All I got was advice to stay on my feet and active, a brochure on low back pain, and a boot out the door. Does this seem reasonable to you? Not even a prescription for pain relief. 7 weeks 3 days ago 48

I've given up on trying to get pain relief from my back and leg pain with massage, cold, heat, acupuncture, and exercise. I'm biting the bullet and letting the surgeon inject me with whatever it is they use for this type of problem. But I'd like some more information on what they do use and how it's done before I leap. What can you tell me? 8 weeks 2 days ago 49
