I am sorry you are in so much pain. Could you go to a neurologist for a second opinion? This is what I would suggest. I was told to always get a 2nd opinion when it comes to your back and neck, or if you are not exactly happy with your diagnosis or treatment, it couldn't hurt and can only help with your treatment options. I saw 3 or 4 dif. docs before my back surgery. I know what it is like to be in constant pain, I have lived with back and neck problems for 30 years. I wish you luck and hope you find relief.
