That's about where I am. When the pain comes, I'm ready to go...Have a lot of pain inbetween my shoulder blades just under my neck. Those muscles on either side of my spine knot up. I've gone through a lot of Biofreeze the last two years. Need to be a sponsor for them....

indiana;
I had a recent apt with my surgeon asked him this ? what do you do if someone has a falied fusion? ---He said 2nd surgery would be required for the nest long tern success rate--- depending on the mri sometimes they can re-do acdf sometimes posterior works best on 2nd surgery.It all depends on the mri. I was thinking of you so I thought I would ask. I trust my surgeron Harvard grad ...he has a great reputation where I live on Ohio. Hope this helps!! |

Ginnie the big corp that I was treating with were physiatrist. The doctor I was seeing refuses to release me so another doctor there can treat me, and she refuses to see me again herself. STILL after all the new evidence stated it was in my head and there was nothing wrong with me at all! That note is following me everywhere I go and making treatment difficult. |

Hi gatorhead, you mean your doctor will not see you nor release you to see someone else? Why the H..... would someone do that? That just doen't seem right to me. I am sorry you are having troulbe with someone that has physiatriast attached to their name. I guess I got very very lucky with my doctor. The best part is that she listens to me. Her assisociate I just met, yesterday, as good as she is. I so hope that the year will bring a good and compasiate healer into your life. I have had bad doctors before too, I just walk away and don't come back. Get all your records so that if you do see a new physician, you will have it all together. Wish you were down this way, I would recommend Dr. Simon in a heart beat. ginnie

Come on down! weather is nice, and so is my doc. I traveled before too to see a good doctor, back when I was living in MO. I gave my home up in Quincy IL. to seek medical attention in Columbia. Moved here because I did better in the warm climate than in the cold.
If you ever decided you come down here. I would introduce you to my doc. personnally if you wanted. She has had me on some suppliments, which has reduced the intensity of PM. I can feel my foot again. If she can get you in a better place, it would indeed be worth the trip. Where are you located? Hope you find some good relief soon. Ginnie |

How are you doing? I just want to re-state, I have a fantastic neuro and physiatrist in my area. ARe you getting any better? Did your doctor finally release you. Get the records from that doctor, and the note won't matter so much. I don't think he can stop you from seeing someone else. ginnie

Hi Gatorhead---just know I think of you often and I feel you been thru so much. If you have to travel where Ginnie is might be worth the shot to get better medical care---you deserve it!!
