Spinal Stenosis

I’m proud for making myself go walking alone without my fiancé (he was working) and instead with my dogs only the last two mornings. That’s pretty remarkable considering I don’t have great balance and have fallen several times when walking (I still have drop foot even after lumbar fusion). I logged a mile each day.

I’m also proud for getting up early, getting chickens out and fed, and making breakfast for my fiancé’s son before dropping him off at school. I spent yesterday planting some tea plants, starting some seeds and repotting a couple of other plants. I haven’t been able to do this in years!!!! Natural therapy 😊🌻☀️

Time management, depression, and distraction in addition to physical pain can be difficult for me to cope with. But, I did all of it and am so happy to have given myself these opportunities to grow.

if you want to share your experiences on this post with good days and days that aren’t so good, feel free to do so!

I had a creative and fun day yesterday in making more bases for my herbal products. I worked steadily and took breaks when I felt my body needed it. My fiancé delivered an order for me so I was very happy for his help and the order! I thoroughly enjoyed being in my zone and making things.

However, I am extremely sore and exhausted today. I got up early to help get my fiancé’s son to school, made his breakfast, let the chickens out, and could barely make it through those few things. Everything hurts so much, I am back in bed.

The “not knowing” part of how I am going to feel the next day gets old and it’s disheartening and it’s difficult to overcome the depression that goes with it. I’ve lost time with family and friends, plus, lost time I could have spent on projects or plans because of it.

I know you know what I’m talking about. Just wanted to share this with you today in case it could be helpful to know you’re not in this alone.

Has anyone tried stem cell therapy where they use our our own cells and also, extract cells from a baby’s umbilical cord?There are places in Mexico that do this and the results have been pretty good at 85% pain reduction even for spinal stenosis.

Hi, my name is Goodluck12. I'm here because I believe I have arachnoiditis. This is probably caused by my major scoliosis surgeries several years ago. Now, I have trouble walking as my legs are very weak. The surgeries have also caused me to have spinal stenosis and I walk bent forward.
I like to know if anybody else have these problems. I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks.

Does any one get ketamine infusions? Frequency? Dosage? Protocol? Who prescribed & oversees? Cost? Are you able to get insurance coverage, reimbursement, or any thing to help w expense? Has anyone head about the clinical trials of ketamine to improve fatigue for MS? I have a demyelinating syndrome & connective tissue dx (both have no name), degenerative spine disease, and I recently got diagnosed w DISH (diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis). I’ve had 8 spinal fusion surgeries w plates screws and rods. DISH causes extra bone growth, specifically bone spurs on my spine. These bone spurs connected to form a bridge, a bridged osteophyte complex T5-T11 #MultipleSclerosis #Scoliosis #SpinalFusion #SpinalStenosis #ComplexRegionalPainSyndrome #AnkylosingSpondylitis #MixedConnectiveTissueDiseaseMCTD #spinal

After suffering a 4 DAY MIGRAINE I was done, at the end of my rope. I don't take narcotics and they wouldn't have helped anyways. So just all the other desperate people that do a Google search (yes I WAS desperate) I found some articles on transcript. And because like all the other housewives out there I am not a certified doctor (lol). In all serious ness for 2 days I put the soft collar on for a couple times each day for a few hours. My migraine turned into a headache and eventually went away. Instead of needing help from my family and a cane to walk that too got better. Obviously NOT medical advice and really I can't explain it but maybe it can help someone going through what I am....happy Sunday 😊
