Someone did a study in which they immersed spine patients legs in boiling water. They just took more Neurontin.

I don't think anyone can answer Rob's question... it's all about your individual case. My understanding is that if you are dealing with exiting nerve root issues, (pain/numbness in arms/hands) you are in better shape than if you are dealing with spinal cord issues and even more specifically, changes to the myelon. If you've got gait problems, bowel/bladder dysfunction, sexual dysfunction, strength loss, etc... take it seriously.
