Hi Junie, I have a cousin with it. She got it after spinal surgery I believe. This was quite a number of years ago. It has been miserable and she has tried numerous things. I'm not quite sure where she is at with it now but I know she had bladder and bowel problems before. I believe she is taking Lyrica for peripheral neurological pain and low doses of narcotics for pain. She is also full of arthritis all over and in her back now too. It's been tough for many years for her. Just my thoughts.
