Well, the doc said that I probably do not have MS but I will need to have that disc removed. He explained that they have to collapse a lung and may have to break my ribs to remove the bad disk and replace it with a plastic one. It is pinching and damaging my spinal cord...OUCH!

He claims to have done roughly 300 of these surgeries in the past 18 months. Hmmmm.
