Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 Hello Dumby@..., In reference to your comment: è I have offered her the option of talking to some of the è other surgeons about S/L Roseotomy Rasotomy or è other treatment options that may exist for her back è pain. The first word that comes to mind is osteotomy, but I don't think that fits in this context. I know that sometimes in cases of severe pain they cut the nerve, but off the top of my head, I can't think of the name of the procedure. Sorry, I seem to be brain dead today. TGIF!!!

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 I think you're looking for: rhizotomy rU-zotcb-mT Section of the spinal nerve roots for the relief of pain or spastic paralysis. Syn: radicotomy, radiculectomy. Per Stedman's Electronic. Jayni back pain The doc is dictating something that sounds like Roseotomy for back pain. I am sure this is not how it is spelled. Can someone help??? and I have expressed to her that I am willing to do anything in my power to try to make these things better. I have offered her the option of talking to some of the other surgeons about S/L Roseotomy Rasotomy or other treatment options that may exist for her back pain.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 Delinda, It is a shot in the dark, but could it possibly be radiculotomy? dumby2001 wrote: >The doc is dictating something that sounds like Roseotomy for back >pain.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Backs are a beast of their own. Sometimes they act up for no apparent reason, an old injury is irritated and says " Hello we are here! " , sometimes something as simple as bending over to pick up something....... PAIN will cause stress on the body and then the BGL will rise..... If icing and moist heat do not relieve discomfort within 48 hrs see your Dr. Vern Catron www.history-buff.org <http://www.history-buff.org/> Meddle ye not in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with ketchup. back pain I've recently been suffering from extreme back pain.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 Yes, I am taking Lipitor and know about the muscle side affects. Not sure if that's what's causing this or not.
