I urge any doubter out there: Look up arachnoiditis in Google Books. You will be shocked as to the extraordinary amount of coverage in modern medical texts about this so called non- existent disease. It is one thing to lie, to deceive, and to profit off of patients illnesses. It is quite another matter to cause this much destruction, and shift the responsibility to the patient. In the US, UK, Australia, New Zealand. It happens. Anyone interested should look up these sites, these support groups, or the condition. And think twice before you have an epidural or myelogram.
The first thing modern medicine needs to do is FESS UP and atone for these transgressions. NEXT, they need to find diagnostic media, and new treatments which do not include neurotoxins which will damage or destroy nerve or spinal cord material. Finally, it needs to LEVEL with patients, and tell us the REAL truth for a change. Perhaps the information age will open up this can of worms and let some sunshine in. It is about time.
