Hey Alkymst ~ Thank you SO much for letting us know what the doc said! I really do appreciate it.
I'm so relieved that he didn't want to do any surgery!

It seems that so many surgeons are "cut happy" and it's refreshing to know that there are actually honorable doctors out there who won't do it just for the sake of doing it! Know what I mean? And there ARE doctors who WILL perform surgery when it's really NOT needed -- when they SHOULD be referring their patients to physical therapy!
So I'm really relieved that you got a really GREAT doctor! I hope you refer him to others too, who may need him.
Yes, please keep us posted as to your progress. I know I'd love to know how you're getting along. Thanks again, and God bless! Hugs, Lee
