ouch
Hey Mark,
Sorry to hear you've got more probs. I wondered about this long and hard w/myself even w/the lumbar surgery just because I feel my body has adapted to it's weirdness over time (that is contracted muscular/ligamental type of configuration).
I've also found that an injection of Toradol can bring me out of some terrible low back pain which I guess are simply spasms (muscular in origin). I'm beginning to think that long ago back when I was out of work for weeks at a time and in bed lying down to recover that a shot of Toradol would have shortened this whole stupid spine situation..
Oh well, hindsight. Just glad for what I now know and am able to have/do re the spine.
Hope you will get relief with whatever you're going to try. Managed Care sucks absolutely and even with a PPO and Medicare there are authorizations, copays, deducs and more stuff than I want to hear about re insurance.
Whatever happened to the "good old days" in medicine where the doctors ruled vs. insurance co's???!!!
