Hi. My name is Shelly and I was just diagnosed with Tarlov cysts. I'm feeling frustrated, mad, while at the same time ecstatic that I'M NOT CRAZY! I currently take Celebrex, Requip and Tramadol for the pain. Not sure any of it works. I started Lysine today. Was told that there really isn't anything that I can do except go to a psychologist and learn pain management mentally. Going to neurologist this Thursday and am going to present my findings on here. I have little kids, a part time job, and I'm only 37, which I was also told that I'm very young to have been diagnosed with these. Worried about how I'm going to feel when I'm 60 when I'm in this much excrutiating pain at 37. Thanks for listening.
