Thanks Charliebubs. I called the NS's office today and will call again tomorrow. Its crazy that I need to wait this long.

Did you get anywhere with them yet, Ellena?

Thanks for asking, but unfortunately, the doc they were referring me to doesn't believe he can do anything for me so my chart was placed on the NS's desk and his assistant is waiting for further direction from him. I gave her a name of a doc to suggest to him so I'll call there tomorrow and see what he has decided. And, then they still need to get insurance approval and we are getting ready to go away for two weeks. I'm still dealing with pain and doing what I can, but its getting worse and lying down is only possible now without a pillow and my eyes are really giving me fits. I'm really getting discouraged here and starting to think I'll never get any relief (sorry I'm just feeling sorry right now cause I've got enough pain to deal with without this). I woke up with muscle spasms at 4:00 this morning in my neck and the doc is thinking that the muscles are so aggravated in my neck from the bulging disc that its inflaming the nerve.

I do hope your still doing well and I really appreciate you asking. Sorry I'm still so bummed out.

Take care, Ellena
