Think realistically about whether you can return to the same kind of work. Re-injury is too easy and too common.
Take care,

Thanks,It just took me awhile to find the right dr's . Once I did I am stick with them. I am sure I will do the same with Surgeons and once my pt is done I will be looking for a chiro or osteopath to continue with the rehab. I'm sorry you werent able to return to your work, and I might not be able to either, I may have to adjust,but not gonna give up hope.
We decided not to go ahead with the NP Injections today because I was not in enough pain! I did everything I could to bring on the burning pain I had last night and yesterday but go figure. Even after all that typing. You have to have enough pain to see if you feel releif right away oterwise its a waste of time So Dr. A said to call on a day I'm in alot of pain and she will squeeze me in. She is the Greatest!
I do feel lucky that I have good insurance and have a few of dr's to choose from here in L.A. Unfortunately this year UCLA decided not to contract with Blue Shield so that eliminates the docs there.
