Ideas? what medicine should i take to help me with arachnoiditis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gabapentin: or Lyrica (pregabalin) maybe medications that will help with arachnoiditis. You could also consider epidural steroid injections, epidural lysis of adhesions and even spinal cord stimulation as other treatment options. Lastly stem cell therapies are also a new and burgeoning treatment option, although not covered by insurance is showing significant benefit to a lot of people.
