Guest guest Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I will ask... but in my experience I had the true electrical stuff on my feet and lower legs (up to knee). I now have that (but take Neurontin and it's better), then I started to have all over burning. Back, neck, pelvis.. hips, buttocks. Neurontin and morphine do not stop it. My " TC " back pain is almost like an excruciating toothache (when you know you need a root canal!) >> >> > >> >> > >> >> > Subject: Ketamine >> >> > To: tetheredspinalcord >> >> > Date: Friday, April 8, 2011, 1:30 PM >> >> > >> >> > >> >> > >> >> > , >> >> > >> >> > I think he's running out of options because nothing seems to work on >> > me, >> >> > and >> >> > >> >> > he's trying anything he can before turning to opiates.
