mm8,

I am very sorry to hear your update. i hope that you have a good team that can help you find whatever you need to assist you with your chronic pain levels. i also think that you might be a perfect candidate for the implant that gibbrn wrote about. i wonder if that is the same implant that Jerry Lewis had. It was supposed to be very successful in his case.

Here is the link fr Gibbrn.

A few other thoughts. Are you in a chronic pain support group? Have your tried spending time in a warm pool where you could do some aquatic work while your spine is suspended?

any update on your SSDI acceptance?

Yes, I will send up those prayers as you requested.
