Re: decisions/Doc. Smith
You are right Dr. smith. A foot is not the same issue as spinal problems. For me it is an additional problem I sure didn't want. I just don't want another surgery, I am tired of them, the whole dog gone thing. I am going to have to do the joint replacement, or it will take my walking away from me. The pain doc. upped my medication until I can get into surgery. I have to heal first from oral surgery, and get an endoscopy. My barretts' esophagus is worse than a year ago, despite a double proton pump inhibitor. I need it checked out to feel comfortable about another surgery. I can't seem to stay out of trouble. I feel blue.
I am sorry about your pain too. I am glad your wife helps you. I am not sure what the therapy is that she does, but if it gets you outside and walking that is a blessing. My spine is pretty good, pain is tolerable. take care Dr.Smith, and I will try to do the same. ginnie
