I had a cyst removed on my first back surgery and it helped until I was in a car accident 6 months later. I then started to seek out help for my back pain. About 8 yrs later and a unbelievable amount of injections I had a fusion done in 2013. After that surgery I was having worse pain than before my surgery, I was awful! It started bad in my back and tailbone. I started end up having vision problems, swelling, tremors, severe headaches and many different strange feelings, I thought I was falling apart! To make a long story and little shorter I had a MRI in Dec 2016 that the radiologist wrote adhesive arachnoiditis. I still was not told. After I started to look back on my MRI months later I looked up what adhesive arachnoiditis was and after switching a couple Dr's I finally got it confirmed by them.
