Eileen:

First, did your husband see an orthopedist???

Are you saying that the medical people have told you "this is not related in any way shape or form to his back"?

And by the way, Alan got his operation two weeks ago at Beth Israel Hospital (the ortho guy works out of there). So far so good. Sorry you had such a bad experience at Beth Israel.

I just want to clarify that SOMEONE told you "it's not his back, we don't know WHY he has PN".

Is this what happened??
