Even though it was from a chiro (LOL) This was good info. (sorry, I have reason to believe that a chiro caused the first injury

As far as dermatome; definately L5; right inside knee and shin. seldome anymore down the buttocks. Sometimes feels like my left ankle is broken when I can't stand on it. That stuff I can handle and tolerate; its the back breaking pain that knocks me to my knees. But these symptoms have disappeard for a while but has returned. Initially, I didn't think the epidural helped, now I believe the epidural made the difference bedtween tolerable and not tolerable.

Maria's story is very similiar to FRP. The program I will be doing is Bay Area Pain & Wellness Center: Functional Restoration Program Overview
