thanks everyone,

I am still trying to hang on. I have an appt with an orthapaedic surgeon in Denver on Jan 5th. I hope I can make it that long.

None of the meds ever really helped me. The surgeon who took out my hardware in January also tore my Dura.

My stepdaughter took her life Christmas of 2003. I try so hard not to quit but I am so tired.

I will try to talk to you individually when I can manage it. Pam
