Default I just have to digress here...

Speaking about being married to more than one... my husband still can't comprehend those who kill because they're promised "70 virgins". He says that living with one woman is bad enough...but living with 70 would be unthinkable

Trying to add some levity after couple of downer days. Was able to talk my dr. out of some more Flector samples so get to hold off a little while longer to see if the appeal is thrown back in my face or not.

Yes it can help with multiple pain sources related to the spine. Now the thing with the dr's saying it's like we are married is there way of saying no. Fact is you can call the medtronic folks and ask them for a list of supporting dr's in your area..I once had it filled on vacation by a guest dr it only took three quick phone calls. Now the whole refill thing takes about 5 min tops they print out your history info remove any of the old meds that are left (shelf life is three months on most opiates)and inject with new meds. People please don't hesitate to call medtronics and ask for a list of dr's that are in your driving area if your current dr says NO. REMEMBER YOU ARE YOUR BEST ADVOCATE IN THIS ISSUE!!!!!! I would gladly drive 8 hrs once a month to live pain free...
