Hi bobby. I feel the same way you do. I do not want to do any more surgery, no matter what happens. I am done with spinal fusions. I don't want to be forced into more treatment, just because I fear loosing my disability if I don't. that is not how I want to live my life either. I know my neck isn't gong to get better. We should not be made to feel this pressure on top of what is already wrong. don't feel guilty. Just get a check up, and don't be forced to do more than you want to do. I think I would go before a judge and tell him the same thing. It is our bodies...not ss. I wish you all the best. I feel guilty because I worry about going down on my medications. I really want to try. Is this going to tell ss that I am getting better? I don't want to stay on the high doses if I can get by with less... same issue. ginnie
