Failed Back Syndrome

    Anyone ever heard of this? My pain management doc suspects it may be an issue with my back, further investigation is required though.

    I have done some research but I can only come up with one or two links, one is the Wikipedia (obviously a pinch of salt is required with this) but another is an article in the BMJ.

    I would love to know if anyone out there has ever heard of this or even been diagnosed with it.

    My own GP has never heard of it, at least not by that name.

    Thanks.
