This has been for 8 years when I was pregnant with my little boy. I have terrible nerve pain and also struggle to walk most days.

I have also weakness in right arm and constant numbness and pins and needles.
This has been last 4 years.

I also have a swollen right foot for the last 4 years.

I have been fighting with the NHS to find out whats wrong. Frustratingly so.

I have now been diagonised with large (2cm 8 3cm) Tarloc Cysts surrounding the upper sacral nerves on the right.

They said on MRI report that it is conceivable that they may be causing pressure on the right lumbosacral plexus, althought this would be unusual. There is nothing else on MRI of pelvis, lower back, foot and head apart from this.

I am at my wits end and frustrated.

I have been referred to a Orthopeadic surgeon. I dont think I need him and need a neurologist instead.

Any advice??
We have just been to a neurosurgeon who ( after 5 years of pain) says that it is a Tarlov Cyst and it can be removed but there are risks. Timy is 50 and can not stand the pain any more. She is scheduled for surgery in Dec. 2014. I agree no orthopedic.
