“No one can do everything but everybody can do something”
TREATMENTS
She tried a lot of alternative treatments for example acupuncture, Physio Therapist, basal body knowledge, Logoped, voice coach, Medical yoga, tactile massage, Lymphatic massage, treatments with a technique called Strain/CounterStrain, water gymnastics in that group as well as individually, Naprapat, Work Therapeutics and Chiropractors. Eventually this all ended by a magnetic x-ray of the back! To everybody’s surprise they found multiple hernias in the back in the neck and in the lower back, in addition to the scoliosis that she had been diagnosed with during childhood.

What kind of opportunities exists now? Could she eventually get healthy again? Get rid of the pain?
We looked for the answers at Ryggkirurgiska in Strängnäs.
After multiple evaluations they concluded that they could do a pain assessment if she lost weight and got within the range of 28 in BMI, that meant she needed to loose 10 kg, said and done, she quickly lost the weight and reached BMI 28 during Christmas 2016/2017. She went through the pain assessment also called pain provocation in January 2017.
The result of all days ended in an offer from them to make a spinal fusion over three vertebrae, L4-L5-S1, our joint decision was to make the spinal fusion at Strängnäs Back Surgery as soon as possible. We put all our hopes and beliefs in that this surgery would solve all of the pain issues for good.
The surgery was conducted in March of 2017, after his surgery she had excruciating pains!!!!
The pain got even worse than before the spinal fusion, in contact with this surgery he said that after the fusion had healed he would remove the pins and needle’s because it was his belief that they were the cause of the pain, from the inside.
She does not experience the pain as rubbing but more ass instability rocking back-and-forth and snapping in the back. At August 2017 the first follow up was done but unfortunately it did not show any signs of healing.
