EMG said I have "chronic nerve problems" nothing new! X-rays show no changes...His official diagnosis is: "you're ok, but not ok, you're moderately ok...no wait, you're not ok but ok!" Those were his exact words! Tomorrow Pain doctor appt.Big Grin

Bummer...this was my SURGEON who made these comments! I looked at him...and said, "OK,now what." He said, "We wait for paralysis, or you can't move an arm...then we will have to go in and do the surgery. Until then, don't do anything, see you in 3 months no xrays will be needed.

So I guess everything is OK...not ok, but OK!Big Grin Can't wait to see what Bad Boy says about this all...and it wasn't even an April fools joke!Big Grin

Babe, My Opinion Only, I would be Calling Back for another Answer, One I could Understand!! At Least My PM Dr, is Very Blunt with Me, I told them from the Beginning to Please be Straight Forward so I know where I Stand! On My 3 Files now, (Each Weighing about 5-10lbs.) it's Written Clearly in Large Red Letters: "NO SURGERY UNLESS A LIFE AND DEATH SITUATION" So at Least I know where I'm at, and what to do and not do, with My Lower Spine so Unstable!! I Sure Hope You can get a Better Explanation, that One would Drive Me Crazy not knowing what I could and could not Do!!Wink
Failed Back Surgery, Chronic Pain, Totally Disabled.

Knowledge is Power, Especially in the World of w/c. Learn as Much as You can about Your States w/c Laws, and don't Fight Battles alone, They Use Attorney's, and so Should You!!
