I have been hurting bad for 4 years. im not "trying" anything. so if you are just looking for relief you may want to go to a pain clinic.
that would be your best bet. even if you only had a ruptured disc. ________________________________ From: Akua <a...@artfarm.com> To: tmic-list@eskimo.com Sent: Monday, January 9, 2012 5:41 PM Subject: Re: [TMIC] has anyone ever heard of Percutaneous Discectomy for a Herniated Disc? Re: [TMIC] has anyone ever heard of Percutaneous Discectom "Risks During a percutaneous discectomy, the surgeon has no way of seeing the herniated disc or the compressed nerve root. The surgery might not remove the herniated disc. So there is no guarantee that pressure on the nerve will improve. There are risks with anesthesia. What To Think About Many experts consider percutaneous discectomy to be a poor alternative to standard discectomy or microdiscectomy procedures." Why are you considering this? In terms of TM -- this would do nothing. An ex had multiple back surgeries including a discectomy -- I don't remember what kind... he went to an experimental place in the Bay area.... but his problems were markedly different from what I have with TM.....my pain is not back pain except when i wrench my back or arm or shoulder lugging the unmoving half of my body...... Guys, >I am actually at the point where I want to try anything. Please let me know if you ever heard of this and what you think. I found this link on the net after I saw an ad in my local paper today. >Regards, >Jeron > >http://www.webmd.com/back-pain/percutaneous-discectomy-for-a-herniated-disc > --
