It sounds like you really got worked over. I hurts to read stories like yours. I have seen a lot of failed back surgeries.....spinal traumas also occur from accidents and even from injections. I won't let them stick another needle in my spine either, and I don't have your issues!

My current neuro is adamant about having no further spinal trauma for me....my current neuro didn't do any of the previous needle sticks. I have had 3 spinal anesthesias for C sections, 3 spinal nerve root blocks for herniated discs which are basically inoperable due to location and my condition, 1 lumbar puncture, oh and one high speed head on with a truck..gee I almost forgot that.

I do not do well with general anesthesia...hence the spinals.

It is tough enough when they do the surgery correctly, let alone when they make mistakes! It sounds like your experience was hideous.

Thanks for sharing your story, I hope people consider what you have endured prior to taking any actions. It is hard to predict the outcome of procedures. I hope you can find some comfort from something, in the future. It sounds like you have tough going right now.
