Can anyone tell me if peri spinal etanercept works ? I have had four back surgeries since 2000. The last two were for decompression of the L-4, L-5 and S-1 nerve roots. My third surgery was performed in January 2011 and the last one in July 2012. I am still having pain around my right hip, left calf , left ankle and left foot. MRI and CT Myloegram do not show anything. Help !

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Current therapies for patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) do not achieve sustained viral clearance in most patients, and are associated with severe toxic effects. Our aim was to investigate the efficacy and safety of etanercept as adjuvant to interferon and ribavirin in treatment-naive patients with HCV.
I had it done and it is amazing how much it has helped. Gone from taking megadoses of pain killers for the neck and shoulder/back pain to letting my almost full bottle of pain killers expire. The nerves do grow back but hopefully the protrusion has receded enough to not be afecting the spine/nerves.
ALSO, found that this pain is not uncommon for those bending down to read the computer screen for hours on end.
Hope this helps.
After this diagnosis I was told to continue with my Gabapentin {3x a day @300mg} but I was also told that a possible Botox shot in the surface area of my left calf might also end this pain. Can anyone tell me what possible effects the Botox shot might have on me such as adverse reactions etc. What does it do to the nerve that is probably exposed in my left calf that is causing this electrical shock symptoms and can the shot of Botox solve this problem. Any help would be much appreciated.

i dont want to explain here clearance becaue you d get confused but without hbsab you can get back to hbsag pos and hbvdna detactable
Why is it that doctors do not go above and beyond the call of duty? I went to see a back specialist he looked at my CT scan and report and said that I was not a surgical candidate and ushered me out of his office right away, he knew by looking at me that I was in pain because I could hardly walk, if he was a back specialist why didn't he give me something for my back?
Is it safe to use a hot pad on your back?
I am in the exact pain! 34+2 days the back pain is excruciating and pillows don't help. My legs are aching too... I have been in pain all day with no relief of trying everything.
Where is it at? Im having extreme back pain but it could be from me working. It's my low back/butt, i was just in tears.
Okay so I've been having an intense back pain in my lower back and pelvis area. Is the normal for someone at 10 weeks?
