One question: have you ever tried Lyrica? My boyfriend is suffering from CES and moreover lately we have discovered he has extra disk segment. It has turned out that the reports from his surgery that took place years ago were misnumbered. Personally I think he simply had surgery on the wrong level. In fact, two doctors agreed with me but of course no one is talking, as it is highly limitative. Does anybody have some information about a redo on a posterior placed BAK fusion at L4-5?
His condition is following: he is able to walk, has minimal bowel and bladder problems, however he cannot feel his penis at all. In fact, he’s able to get the erection but as only he tries to lift something greater than 20lbs he can’t stand up and the erection vanishes. We have been searching throw every old and new MRI. It all looks like he had a L5-L6 disk herniation and the S1 is mobile. Has anybody ever heard of any similar case? We’ll appreciate any advises, as we don’t want to lose his normal life again.
