How Can Spinal Tumor Be Removed?
Is it possible to get my spinal tumor removed? I ve been told it s too risky for me as well as doctor. I m in so much pain every sec of every day it s become unbearable. I honestly would sign a waiver for the doctors to not be held responsible for any negative outcomes. I can barely take care of myself and just want some sort of relief. I no longer have insurance and I m unemployed so I need a doc or docs that would help me pro bono or free of charge. I pray everyday to not wake up with this mind numbing issue.

Hello,
It is a risky procedure because you might end up in complete weakness after the procedure.
Consult a neurosurgeon and get evaluated.
You can consider higher end analgesics like Gabapentin or Oxycodone for pain relief.
If the size is increasing, surgical removal will be the best option.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
