Lyndsay,
I am very sorry for your pain and what is perceived as a failed surgery. I too have heard only great things about Dr. Baumbach but if you can't afford to go see him, it's pretty much a mute point. I've also heard about how the UK health system gives up on patients when their pain is unspecific. I'm not trying to tell you our health care system is any better and I couldn't tell you which one is worse. I suppose if you have a serious problem it really doesn't matter!
So what to do now? Mark... does Dr. Baumbach ever go to the UK for consultations?
Other than that but regardless, my thoughts are with you. I wish you the best, Dale
