All normal. I was told all that can be done is to treat symptoms. I've been on 4 different meds and they work for a while and then it gets worse. I'm going to the JH pain treatment center the end of Sept to see what they can do. I share my experience just to let you know that I understand and share your frustration.
If you don't mind sharing, which doctor did you see at Hopkins? I saw Cornblath in Oct. of 09.
