Default Dorsal,Root Ganglion Stimulation

http://www.spinalmodulation.com/en/p...tion.1102.html

Well. .. I've been told Ive to urgently lower my meds as I am on overdose level .. But, little by little.

Second, he suggested so,etching called Dorsal Root Ganglion Stimulation. There are only 20 people in Europe who have this at the moment as its a very new procedure and they don't know the long term risks etc, but yes, of course I put my hand up.

They are having a meeting on the 18th to discuss my case and I wonder if my surgeon, who I am seeing on the 28th will mention anything. It was just a routine appointment to check how my wound is doing but maybe he will have more news on the above.


Now I am going to get in bed and sleep.

He said no wonder I was tired taking 150mg Amatryptilline a night .. He was very concerned about my meds and has advised me to cut out one but keep it handy if I need it, and he is writing to my doctor so I shall get at appointment with her.

At the mo I am on

60mg 12 hour release zomorph twice a day
30mg diazepam once or twice a day
40ml tramadol 6 times a day
20mg tamazepam at night
150mg Amatryptilline at night
40mg omeprazole twice a day
30mg Prozac a day
1000mg paracetamol for breakthrough pain
Enema twice a week ... No explanation necessary
