Regarding the infusions. The only reason I would consider them is because in addition to the severe demineralization in my right foot and ankle I have osteoporosis in my hip and lumbar spine. I feel as if my options are limited, due to my age and the ticking time bomb in my head. If i can get my CRPS under control I will have brain surgery to coil my Annie. Otherwise I am reluctant.
Hey Bio,
I had been told to have brain surgery too but the truth is I'd rather live, or try to, with my cerebellum shrinking than go through an exploratory in nature type of surgery. The cerebellum had been surgically done before but they need to do the spinal stem side which is new with a very low % of working.
I'm sure you've weighed your options so I hope for the best.
Sorry, I just had to jump in when I read your post...
