OK, not sure if this is the place for this post but we'll see. I was injured over 20yrs. ago. I have a few vertabrae fused together and all was well for the first 10-15 yrs. Then I started getting back pain. More than normal. This went on for a few years and I just learned too live with it. Then I got a sweaty left foot. Again I lived with it for about a year. I then got a sweaty left leg,foot, etc... This was for about 3 months and then it was my whole lower body from the waist down. My doctors didn't want too send me for an mri or cat scan for over 2yrs and when they finally did, they found my spine had some sort of ulser on it. He said it was like I had a small portion the didn't heal when the fusion took place back in 1990. So now for some reason the sweats have stopped. But, I have this bone getting piled on cause the body is trying too heal itself and in doing so has pinched the nerves going down there.

So, the problem now is that I have lost all spasms and muscle. I'm a stick man more than i should be. Which is causing bladder problems (leaky) and seems too be getting worse. I'm waiting for the doc too get back too me but I'm thinking they are going too tell me there's nothing they can do. Anyone have a problem like this? Heard of someone that has? I'm also going too see another guy about accupuncture too see if there's any help there. But again not sure on that one.
