Spinal stenosis help

Hello,
im writing on behalf of my mum who has spinal stenosis- we are from Scotland but have been recommended to check this forum out.
im writing on behalf of my mum who has spinal stenosis- we are from Scotland but have been recommended to check this forum out.
She has been advised by pain nurse to cut cocodomal pain killers which in turn help her best. She is a 25 hour carer in the community and her job is by no means easy bathing up to 5 people a day- there is no task deemed easy by her work so she is struggling really bad at the moment.
I am wondering if anyone has had any relief from other treatments other than tablets, I feel things are getting worse, and she is only 59 years old so doesn’t qualify for early retirement and we have been told she wouldn’t qualify for benefits?!
Thanks.

I'm sorry to hear your mum is in a lot of pain, how is she doing at the moment?
I was wondering if she has had reasonable adjustment at work? I appreciate this may be difficult due to the nature of her job.
