Pam, I am glad to hear you went to the "celebration". Your friend went way out to make everthing so memorable for everyone there. And, most of all, you will be present in the pictures taken. But.....

So sorry you had to leave in such terrible pain. From what you say, sounds like the fusion is a must. Even tho your neuro does not do the paddle; has he mentioned whether he feels the scar tissue might still be an issue possibly making the procedure unsuccessful??

Sure am praying you will be guided to make decisions that will work most to eliminate much of your pain.
