I was happy to receive my records from the Mayo Clinic until I began to read them. I knew there would be termanology in there I would have to look up, but there was more than I imagined. Here was the one that really caught my attention "arachnoiditis". Anyone else have this? Or even hear about it? Sounds like something to do with a fear of spiders (LOL). It doesn't per se'. It's scar tissue that "spider" webs out into other areas and can cause severe pain. I'm hoping there's someone else out there that can give me a little more insight into how it can be treated. From the little bit I read, nothing sounds promising. I'd be thrilled to hear from anyone else with this condition that might be able to fill me in.

Best of luck to all of us!
