Well, I went to see my dr. Who did my thoracic scs back in July and revision in October. As long as insurance runs through and everything is smooth, I am getting my permanent implant 3/13/13 at 8 am. I'm ecstatic. When they pulled my temp yesterday, I almost cried. The pain came back so badly, and I didn't sleep at all. I'm excited, but nervous. He said the cervical surgery is tougher due to neck muscles and the like. However, I say nothing could be tougher than those awful blood clots. If I can have drug free relief like I experienced last week, a few weeks of pain is worth it. I hope everyone else is well! all the waiting is worth it now.
