G’day guys, I finally got in for my review to see if all these injections work. Two injections have worked , I got no pain in left arm/ hand now and still haven’t had a migraine, that alone is a bonus. But in my review I was expecting an ultrasound on hip and injection in l 5/S1 facet joint. Well it was a different pain specialist and the injection I got ended up in right hip, apparently I have bursitis? Heckets it was more painful than the spine injections. I told the girl doing ultrasound where I was meant to get injection and she said no, it was to be in my SI joint. She said my bursa was very enlarged and full of fluid ? So waiting on another review. Must of had bursitis lol hip good. Thought it was just all coming from my back. Hope every one is staying safe , harpy
I’ve had nerve pain in my legs for years just like the worse sunburn you’ve ever had constantly, dizziness, vertigo , tinnitus (just like a refs whistle constantly) , unsteady or lose balance, tiredness and cold toes I went to see a nuerosurgeon at Caloundra which is a $350 cab fair (one way) he sent me to a brain and spine specialist , who ordered blood tests which are back but I don’t see the brain specialist till next week (yes I do have one it took him some time to find it as it was hiding) it seems that I’m B12 deficient which can mean countless things and if you do a Dr Google you would shoot yourself so here I sit waiting for a definitive result .

Hi johnno, the ever pain is the pits. My feet still hurt but the worst of it is if I am walking . My leg pain is like restless legs . They are getting weaker and finding it hard to use steps and if I been on the ground to get up is painful and I need help. Yes I have had tinnitus for years, like walking through the bush in the middle of summer and the cicadas screeching. I get the cold feet but mine legs are cold from knees down. They are very cold to touch but weirdly enough the sensation is they feel like there burning hot .
I hope your results are a good easy fix and nothing bad. Harpy
Well I saw the specialist yesterday I have been diagnosed using all of my symptoms as having idiopathic neuropathy and unfortunately it is something I will have to learn to live with bugger
