It is good to see you back again. I am glad you are trying some treatment. i have said before that not a candidate for ADR do to terrible bone density and have many levels fused. I am happy with the results, i have a wonderful loving spine surgeon. I just had him do some more decompression in my lumbar spine and extend a fusion, it is only 3 weeks out so can;t say yet how i feel about this. But i do love him. He did some work in my already fused thoracic spine and for the first time since DrRegan ruined my lung capacity by damaging my phrenic nerve i have slightly improved lung capacity. My surgeon had also straightened out my spine a bit more with this last surgery. So instead of 50% lung capacity i have achieved 63%. Makes a difference to me.
I wish you the best of luck . I hope all of your pain is gone. I hope you change your mind about going out with a bang. If nothing else i enjoy your posts and would miss them and you. Please let us know when this is happening and any more details you wish to share.
