Dear Dr Corenman,
I happened upon your video that describes the nucleus being toxic to the surrounding nerves. It was music to my ears and I completely got, what you described etc.. I have suffered from DDD for nineteen years. Of all the consultants/surgeons/other medics, no one has ever mentioned this to me.
The toxic nerve type pain is different from the other associated pain, which comes from having this debilitating disease/disorder.
My question is, has there been any further research development in order to make this type of pain more bearable for suffers? I’m on a cocktail of medication for the pain. Unfortunately, I’m allergic to the morphine patches and Oxycodone tablets.
I really look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks in anticipation.
Anne
