Hi Tommo,
DaisyMae hasn't been around for a number of years, but I would like to wish you a warm Welcome.
Coming up to your 9th spinal op makes you quite a Pro, not the sort of experience I would wish on anyone. Were they due to accident or degeneration?
I also have something pressing on my spinal cord - in my neck. If my Neuro ever gets his finger out and sends MRI results to my GP I will know whether it is from crushed vertebrae, discs, spurs… I have spinal pain and referred numbness down left arm and excruciating pain in right arm.
I assume you have many pain issues, would you like to talk about them, or your previous/forthcoming operations?
We have many caring Members across all the Forums, feel free to look around. Most of all, enjoy your time with us.
Dave.
