Based on the surgical Hx provided you would benifit from a consult with a Neurosurgeon that specializes in pain management. Consider a pain pump implanted sub dermal with the working end inserted into the spinal canal.This will provide immediate relief to the lumbar spine.The anterior and thoracic spine is another issue.Good Luck!!!
