Oh my! A 3 and 4mm?? I would say you are prob a walking miracle that you are not quadraplegic. Though I know you are still in pain, you still came out on the better end.
My husband is dealing with a torn rotator cuff and arthritis and it is very painful for him. So I have an idea of what you are going thru on that.
That's something else that is bothering me, the domino effect. I heard a long time ago that once they go in like that, they will have to keep going in. But no matter what, I know I will have to have the surgery sooner than later anyway. It is what it is.
I will try to keep up with your posts to see what happens with you. I certainly do wish you the best on your spine and shoulder. As for myself, I really have no idea how long it will take for Shreveport to give me that appt. We will see. Thanks again Gator, God bless you!
