@heyitskay444: READ THIS BEFORE COMMENTING: Our medical system is SO broken and I’m so over it. I’m SO over it. I am in pain because I need ALIF (spine fusion) and possible neurosurgery (occult tethered spinal cord) in January 2026. I have the same spine condition as Luigi Mangione + more including cysts within my spinal cord.. it’s called Syringomyelia. My neurosurgeons WANT me to see a pain management doctor. They also will not prescribe before surgery. They want someone to help bridge the gap between now and surgery and even til after surgery so I can finally live my life’s Yes, I do have POTS, hEDS, MCAS and migraines but I am managing those. The pain I’m experiencing is like no other, i also have spinal stenosis and due to my structural spinal issues, I developed scoliosis. I am NOT a candidate for interventional pain medicine because I already had an epidural steroid inj and it failed + caused a csf leak. #ChronicPain #ChronicIllness #MedicalTrauma #doctorsoftiktok
