View allMy mom has lumbar canal stenosis and can't walk more than 300 meters or stand for over 5-10 minutes. She's been getting painkiller injections every 6-8 months for the last 3 years but they're not helping anymore. The doctor prescribed Pregabid 50mg twice daily, Dupact 40mg once daily, and Mecobal 1500mg once daily. Will these meds actually help improve her condition or is surgery the better option at her age? Her MRI report shows the severity - just worried if meds can provide real relief or if we should consider surgery
Surgery is advised to the patient due to lumbar canal stenosis.
