What surgery do you do 4 it????
I wish more drs. did this surgery. I live in an area where there are several medical centers and teaching hospitals. There are SO many doctors in every discipline you might need available...EXCEPT I can't find a dr. who does this surgery, & I have asked pain drs, my orthopedist, PTs, and neurosurgeons if they know anyone who does this surgery. They don't. It's incredibly frustrating. I have piriformis syndrome & have not had success from injections or PT.
👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎Thank you for helping all those people. You are truly appreciated by everyone. Please take care and stay safe and have a great day.

I wonder if he could help my sister who has CRPS. She’s in constant pain and goes to the Mayo Clinic where they put a stimulator in her back to block the brain from sending the pain signal but it got botched so it doesn’t work as good as it could. I hate seeing my sister suffer so much.

I have been dealing with MP since 2017. I live in the Rockford area of Illinois and cannot find a doctor who can help me. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to make it to your clinic and I am going out of my mind. I need help I want help. But, cannot get it. 😢 I also suffer from Dupuytrens Disease in both hands since 2018 and CRPS since. I am 57. I have two grandson's 9&6, but I cannot do much because of MP and CRPS. I pray that one day, I will get back to LIFE 😢. I cannot even allow my husband to touch me 😢. I need help.

Any recommendations for a peripheral nerve surgeon for failed Morton neuroma surgery in NJ are?
I read he is a Hand Surgeon by training, and he has a fair number of one star reviews that are worth reading before you take a leap of faith.
Are there instances where the nerve block does not work? Will you still go in procedurally?
I’m recently having shooting pains in my abdominal skin. It’s shocking! So intense and painful! Prior to this, for the last 4 weeks or more I am having a crampy type pain all around the right side and around into my back. I get sudden, painful spasms as well. The only relief I can find is hot water baths. Once out of the tub, it all comes back. I go from my recliner to my bed to the bath and rotate this cycle all day and night. I manage to sleep due to exhaustion but not for enough hours and always wake due to intense pain. Any ideas?
Amazing video
Coming to see you soon
I had a very bad experience with a surgeon in Papillion/NE (Dr. Aguila) who does the same type of surgeries as this surgeon - eleven months after my surgery for post herpetic neuralgia pain, I'm in more pain than before the surgery. As part of patients' rights, he had an obligation to explain to me all the risks of the proposed surgery - he didn't do it in my case. Before the surgery, his prep nurse and his anesthesiologist both promised that he would come to see me in the prep room on the day of the surgery and that he'll go with me over the details of my surgery and answer all my questions. He didn't show up. He also didn't show up to check on me after the surgery. The anesthesiologist also didn't show up after the surgery to check on me, even though he kept me for six hours under with Ketamine (he also didn't bother to explain the risks of anesthesia). Right after I woke up in the recovery room, I was told to dress and leave the hospital (Papillion Family Hospital owned by Family Hospital Systems/TX). The surgical team took pictures of me during the surgery, without my consent. All this for twenty thousand dollars in cash, since this surgeon doesn't accept any insurance.
Does anyone have more information on Dr. Tolestrup? I know he doesn’t take insurance. How do you pay?
He is a Hand Surgeon by training, and I highly recommend you read his one star reviews. Best of luck!
