Hello.I also had this surgery and with the same results. You need to look on the web for what is called reflex sympathetic disorder. It feels like parts of your body is burning with acid. This disorder will probably not go away and I do not want to scare you, but Ihad to go on very high doses of narcotic patches, which aia do not like at all !!!Y ou will probably want to go see a pain specialist after a few weeks because most times, your own Dr. does not want to get involved with this.Ihad this surgery x"s 2 and after the first surgery, Iended up with a blood clot on my spine and also with very severe spinal headaches, oh my goodness those headaches are soooo very painful! so painful you cannot even wipe your own fanny.Well so I had the second surgery and ended up with 2 numb feet, Icannot stand on my toes, Icannot walk very well, and the pain is sickening.Ihope you take this info and get some help. Ido not know too many people in this area whom are affected this way. Ilive in worcester, massachusetts. Oh, just one more thing,the longet your PcP lets this go on, the more your spinal canal can become more affected. Good luck!!!!Pat,,,,Ialso had severe burning.Icouldn"t even touch my toe to the floor. the web site is called REFLEX SYMPATHETIC DISORDER.THEN YOU PUT IN CHRONIC PAIN.
