Chronic coccydynia for over a decade

Posted 2024-05-05

Hello fellow tailbone sufferers. I injured my tailbone back in 2012 and worsened throughout the years after 8 epidural steroidal injections, internal manipulation and a ganglion impar injection that went too deep causing me to have constant unbearable debilitating pain with electrical shocks.

Now I can no longer walk or sit down at all and now suffer from sharp hip pain and neuropathy and I suspect I may have Arachnoiditis.

I'm having trouble with the hospital taking responsibility and taking my pain seriously I been suffering night and day. I lost my career due to this and my ability to sit down so I cannot drive, I feel like I'm living in a nightmare. I'm unable to sleep or get any pain relief I have to ice myself all day. I lost my freedom this chronic pain condition has changed my character.

Every day I mourn a piece of my old lifestyle especially being present in my kids lives. I would do anything to be out of pain it's taken over my life I'm begging for help the pain management Doctors won't give me any more invasive procedures due to my central sensitization I'm only 40 and I'm forced to suffer in silence and stuck without any solutions.
