Malinda k,
Thank you for your reply and I am very sorry to hear about all you have gone through. I can see your point and I agree that there is more to this than meets the eye. I too have had lumbar urgery in Feb 2011, and then had the MV accident in March 2011. That is how and why I actually do have a capable spine specialist. My theory is that the neuropathy may be some sort of chemical radiculopathy?? I don't know. The last 3 days I have been living on a bountiful diet of voltaren and panadol. I hope you are doing ok and again thank you for taking the time to reply to me.
