Steve. I was sorry to read that your saga continued, but very pleased with the ending. Here's to your continued success (I'm raising a glass!). Call when you have a chance... I'd love to catch up with you.

PS. I was surprised to read about the difficulty relating the bladder control and 'below the waist' issues to your c-spine. As I understand it, the connection to even the lowest nerves originates in the brain and that 'lower' symptoms may be related to the obvious lower nerves; OR to the c-spine, t-spine, or brain. Bladder and 'below the waist' issues would not be uncommon symptoms of cervical myelopathy in the more serious cervical/spinal cord problems.
