Anybody On Here Been Diagnosed With NDPH (new Onset Daily Persistent Headache)?
Web forums and medical articles on this relatively recently defined headache syndrome are filled with stories of headache that was triggered, usually by an infection. Most know the exact date it started, and most just had EBV (mono), or were later diagnosed with Lyme. I have both, but they're not new. There has never been any research on it. There is no proven effective treatment, since the mechanism is unknown.I believe that it is inflammation from an overactive immune response. Occassionally… read more

Never heard of this
Botulinum Toxin Injection
This is not so much of a question as a comment on the write-up on Botox Injections. The first is to make sure that the doctor knows if the insurance company will pay for it. If it is not an FDA-approved indication (i.e., TMJ trigger points/muscle spasms) the insurance company probably won't pay for it. Go to www.fda.gov and search on "Botox approved indications" (or do a Google search using that).
That's me up shit creek and no paddle as I can't afford medical insurance and there's only so much a gp can do I just ave to shut up and get on with it alone
Botulinum Toxin Injection
I had this injection just the once but it did not work. Why is it done to the surgeon? I do agree I had to wait all day for the injection (Got to hospital by 7.30 went into theatre 4.30 then it didn't work!)
I was told that it releases the muscles and that is why they use it on peoples faces because it releases the muscles that cause wrinkles.
May have worked better on them than on my leg! LOL
I got injections and ended up at my rheumy for an emergency appointment the next day to find out injections flare up my lupus and told never to get them ever again!
Has Anyone Hac A Nerve Block Done For Back Pain?
My pain doc wants me to try a nerve block on my back. I'm willing to try anything at this point. If you've had it done, is it painful? Does it hurt? I have DDD, stenosis,and L-4 and L-5 are herniated. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
You need to find a specialist who knows how to do it and has a CT or at least an ultrasound available. It can help you to patch up the pain for 1 - 3 months depending on the stage of your herniated… read more

Had Anyone Ever Had Steroid Injections. For Neuropathy
How Likely Are You To Recommend Spinal Injections For Pain Control?
Unfortunately epidurals only give me a day of relief from the novocaine in the injection. My insurance denies oblations. I’m sorry for all your pain.
