Anishka: Wakefield, VA, United States; I have ARACHNOIDITIS but I won't let it have me. It sounds like something to do with spiders, not the name of a disease that produces never-ending pain. But that's what it is—even pain management dr says he wouldn't wish it on his worse enemy. It produces paralysis, numbness, weird sensations, loss of bowel and bladder function, memory loss, spasticity, the inability to sleep, vision loss. The list of symptoms goes on, but let's not forget pre-mature death. There is no treatment, at least not from the medical system. Okay, arachnoiditis is bad - but I will deal with it and will not let it defeat me, I plan on living at least another 50 years.
