Anndav,

I hope you found the website to be helpful and informative. Glad to hear you found a surgeon closer to your area that may be able to help you. It never hurts to ask and consult as many physicians as you can. With my disc fusion surgery, it took me 4 years after consulting over a dozen or more different specialist to find the 1 doctor that listened to me and believed that my pain wasn't all in my head that I had a serious problem. I get how frustrating it can be. I'm praying this physician is able to give you q definitive answer as to what is the root cause of your pain and discomfort.

Please keep me posted!

Best wishes,
