I finally get to see the Neurosurgeon tomorrow. I had to go over my Dr.'s nurse and make the appointment myself. Hubby is taking the day off to take the 60+ min trip to Shreveport. I did a big boo boo today and moved about 3 cases of paper. I really should have listened to y'all and my doc. I got a "pins and needles" feeling at the base of my skull and a really bad headache from it. I am really hoping there are alternatives to surgery, like change in diet to build up the fat between my discs...special therapy....but I just don't think so. Maybe not surgery right now, but I see it coming. I am more depressed about what my Radiologist determined than the actual pain. I have been uncomfortable for so long...I figured I was just getting old!
