Only thing I can offer is this, Rae.... my family chiro is a well and trusted friend, and if he felt as though he was willing to help me and felt safe about it, Rick [his name, best man for that job in this part of the universe] would treat me in a heartbeat. Once I was fused, he no longer felt comfortable working on my back, only would adjust my cervical area.... the neck.
Now, with the implant, he says he is concerned about detrimentally affecting my T8/T9 location of the paddles, and will not treat me. I both trust and value his judgment as he is a very close friend of our family, and brilliant to boot.
That may not be what you would like to hear, but it is the situation for me,
So sorry you are SO desperate, and I am praying for you for SURE,
