I have been having a lot of back pain lately. I have even had migraines caused by the back pain and been sick, have had to increase my painkillers to co-codimal during the day plus co-codimal and tyrol at night.
I am 40 years old, had a Harrington rod fitted at the age of 10 years, it had to be removed 9 years ago as it became infected. I have since had several sessions of physiotheraphy, the last sessions I finished last week. The physiotherapist has said I shoulld go back and see a back specialist as he thinks my spine is progressing. I also use a nippy ventilator at night.
My Dr who referred me for physio said that a specialist wouldn't see me, not sure if he was trying to fob me off!
I look forward to any comments.
