Well, it did take a few days, but the nerve block in my lumbar spine is working. I can walk again! Now I''m looking forward to Monday when I get another nerve block in my Thoracic spine. The disc is riding on a nerve that sends pain around my rib cage. I''ve had 2 unsuccessful blocks and now the 3rd kind is the only hope I have. If this doesn''t work, I''ll have to think about surgery. I sure don''t want that. But taking pain relievers is getting to be a daily thing and I don''t want to get addicted. I''m just not sure what I will do. I''ll have to wait until Monday and then cross that bridge if I come to it.

Back surg. is scary to me. I would want a 2nd opinion, but not if you really like and trust your doc. What do they say about healing time? I mean are they saying it will be better in 6 months without surg? Take Care, Cindy

My injuries are permanent. That's what they say...I've been to three different doctors and the company's doctor agreed with mine!!
