[|AI|]  Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you.a thorough neuromuscular assessment and musculoskeletal assessment is advised. Since your history sounds you have been into trouble since long. I will advise you to focus on physical therapy now as it will help to first reduce the pain with therapeutic ultrasound therapy and TENS therapy. Now it may sound, that it won't work, but in my clinical practice with failed back syn Chat Doctor.  It may consume a lot of time for the recovery to come. Maybe it will to in percentage basis. Like 5, 10, 20, 40, 80.... First you need a proper MRI scan for the while spine. And second the muscle strength assessment. As this two things can help guide further. Also, medicine will act symptomatic too. Now to look further you need a physical therapist who is passionate about solving this issues, a personal interest shown should help you like my patient with failed back syn
