Little bit of news
2007-07-26
Today I went to my neurosurgeon about my back. I have 7 disc herniated from T11 thru L5-S1.
He will not do surgery because there are some disc that are just small herniations inbetween the large herniations. Siad surgery would create a domino effect and the back would just fail. That is ok w me didn't want more fusion done. So I guess Ill have life long epidurals and PT. with pain meds. DDD will progressively get worse anyway. I do dread the epidurals so I hope he is not going to do 3 at one time. Medical bills are out of control. Injections are not cheap. Nor are medications. But I have endured a lot of painful crap, so life goes on.Money goes out.
I hope that epidurals and PT will take some of the pain away, so I can atleast function. Will wish for the best. I will see a orthopedic for my rt arm pain, had 4 wks therapy but my arm is really hurting. Next step is another doctor.
Hope all is well with all. Ive been down and out for a month with the pain. We will see how the food store will like all this stuff.
Take care all. God Bless
