I never said I wanted surgery. I know all about lower back surgery and what are the options. I've done a lot of research and I've been to a lot of specialists. I even made the trip down to Duke University.
Right now, we're just trying to get the pain more tolerable. Surgery hasn't even been brought up with my Dr. I was just noting what past Drs have said. I'm just really looking for thoughts on the procedure I'm having. Cause I can't find anything online, so I thought I'd come on here to get some input. |

I usually am fairly good with research. No luck in finding out what the ice proceedure is. I am not sure anyone on NT has had it done. If they did, it hasn't come to light. I sure would like to know what it is. I think before I did any proceedure I would have to have some kind of education or written explainations before I did it. Just my own take on it. Wish I could have been more helpful. I wish you all the best. ginnie

Hi Ginnie,
Try: infusion catheter epidural This article is (IMO) pretty good; I generally like PPM. Infusion Catheter Epidural I don't recall any discussions here either; the archives turn up a half dozen or so posts, but they don't appear pertinent. I don't seem to find too many discussions on it except a few older ones on Usenet (now Google Groups). Doc

I've been walking around with this catheter in my back for 3 days now, and I'm sooooo ready for it to be taken out. It has really helped my back, but now I feel all my other pain.
 I don't know why I didn't do this sooner.
