Hi, I assume I have arachnoiditis. I had an epidural ten years ago when I had knee replacement surgery.. I opted for the epidural as I thought It would be safer. After the surgery, I had leg pain below the knees on both my right and left leg. It s as if I have the type of leg pain you might have with the flu. It s also tingly feeling. My doctor gave me vicoden, which I ve been on for ten years. I m now on five per day. Kaiser has been reducing the amount I take. I really don t think I can take less, but I m trying. I keep asking what about the pain. They will not talk to me about it. They have not diagnosed my pain. They just say I need to get off the meds. I do not want to be chained to the meds. What steps can I take to find a solution? Thank you, Mary YYYY@YYYY
