Hi Maria ,
I never had any back pain at all prior to the surgeries , I never had this type of pain at all. The pain is concentrated bilat in my butt and it is like a switch.
I have pain when standind but as soon as I sit it is unbearable.(My job is sitting at a computer all day).
Pain meds have been no help at all.Never had Lyrica , Neurontin did not work .Maybe it is this part of the country but no Dr will prescribe opiod meds. My PCP does give me Norco , only 30 a month , and I hold out taking them unless I feel like I am going to pass out from the pain.I did have a mri and ct scan done by the surgeon who performed the surgery and he did not mention anything about scar tissue.
I am scheduled to see a rehab guy next week to see if it has anything to do with the SI , I never had any problems before this surgery, and the hardware can not be removed to my knowledge as it was a standalone device.
