Suggest Treatment For Back And Neck After Spinal Tap

Dec 13, 2013 I had a spinal tap to detect if I had MS. The doctor had to stick me 4 different times, had a hard time locating the correct area. The next day I started experiencing severe pain starting from the top of the back of my neck, my whole back, arms, fingers, buttocks, legs and bottom of my feet. Doctor gave me several Percocet for pain then that stop working then he gave me steroids 3 weeks ago, in case of swelling, for a week, where I took less pills each day, and that helped however this past week the pain is starting to come back in all those areas. It's not as severe but I don't know however severe it will be in a few more days. I am so scared, depress and lost as to what to do next. it turned out I have no MS. I was a healthy person who exercised daily and ballroom danced as a hobby now I am so what disabled. PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN!!! TU
