Default Tarlov Cyst Current conditions

At the time you wrote this below, you said you were pain free. What is it that you did to be come pain free? What's your progress now? I'm still in the process of determining what my burning pain is caused from. It notes I have a tarlov cyst on S3 on the MRI. The neurosurgeon doesn't think it's that. I'm doing another MRI (upper torso) the end of this week. Tonight my burning is intense & won't settle down enough to sleep. I'm not on any medication yet. But, I need something soon. I can't take not sleeping. The burning goes through my whole body.

So very much to be grateful for......I never thought I'd see the day when I'd feel functional making the bed or washing my hair.

I was laid flat out for 2 months so was very weak from pain and more pain. It hurt to do almost anything. Now I am getting my strength back and doing more each day.

My neurosurgeon does not want to do surgery and he has me consulting with a thoracic spine (neurosurgeon) specialist in a few weeks. More will be revealed later.

So, I live one now at a time and rejoice.
