parkinson disease chronic back pain and epidural injections
 

Hello, My name is Roseann and Im concerned about my father who is 81 yrs old with a Dx. of parkinsons disease for about 31/2 yrs now. He is experiencing chronic back pain and a recent visit to a pain management doctor yielded a visit to a local hospital for an epidural injection. my grave concern is Is this safe? and also due to bilateral lower extremity weakness ...will this rendered him immobile. Please forward reply to **



Sincerely,
Roseann

Have you tried acupuncture? It worked for me.
