I also have this and something started happening - a sudden, sharp, not 'knowing when' back spasm that makes my stomach clench inward. It started happening after I came home from the hospital after being in there 3 weeks. I can go hours without a happening or it can happen several times in a minute. It is really weird.
In addition, I have had constant around the clock pain where a shunt was put into my pleural cavity to drain my syrinx (after my symptoms of posttraumatic syringomyelia began and I had surgery). This began in 1997 and started spreading from the bottom of my neck down my back and around my right shoulder blade. It is exactly where the challenge goes. I began to have MRIs regularly but everything was negative showing that the shunt was fine and still working. I take a narcotic and it does take the edge off the pain unless it is aggravated by neither me getting hurt somehow or crying. Things have gotten worse over the last few years now that I don't have family or numerous caregivers like I did when I was with my husband or living with family. ~ Lori On Wed, Oct 3, 2018 at 5:26 AM Noel <[email protected]> wrote: > I've developed severe back pain over the past year.
