From what I have been told the condition also called failed back surgery condition is permanent. My doctors said it's symptoms can be controlled with different types of therapies but as of yet there is no cure.
One doctor told me of a group that is actually removing the problem scar tissue. Not all insurance is covered and they are in TX I think it is www.northamericanspine.com. There is medication therapy and also neurostimulation therapy if you are approved. Plus a host of injection therapy's all that need to be discussed with a good pain management doctor. Plus there are holistic therapies like acupuncture. And mental health therapy counseling and group therapy. This is based on my experience with the condition and what I have been told and learned on my own. It is not a medical diagnosis.

What is post Lami syndrome?
The correct name is Post-Laminectomy Syndrome. In medical terms, "post" means after. In this case, it means after an operation. A laminectomy is the removal of a piece of bone in the spine. The lamina helps support the vertebra of the spine. When all or part of the lamina is removed, it's called a laminectomy. Laminectomy is done when the disc material bulges out of its normal space. The bulge or herniation presses against the spinal cord or spinal nerves. The pressure on a nerve can cause painful symptoms down the leg called sciatica.Removing the lamina takes the pressure off the nerve root. If the operation doesn't work, the patient still has sciatica. There may also be numbness and tingling and even muscle weakness. Any time a group of symptoms occur together, it's called asyndrome. This group of symptoms after removing the lamina is called a postlaminectomy syndrome.
