Maria,
Isn't is amazing how GOD works in mysterious ways? I do hope your decline in pain and symptoms is permanant and not transient. As a mechanics wife I've seen the same thing happen with cars (not that I liken you to a car) but I've also spoken to doctors about the 'white coat syndrome' too. The big question is are you still going to proceed with your surgery or will you take a wait and see stance? I think everyone would react differently, some saying wait and others not taking the chance of having to wait again, especially with the fight you've made. Whatever you decide, I do wish you good luck, Dale

Maria,
Forgive the pun..."I've not had such a good spell for years." Here's the 'spell' S-T-R-E-S-S. I'm convinced that stress hits us in our most vulnerable parts and can do awful things. You struggled against the wc system and different docs and diagnoses and treatment recommendations for years. Now that you know where you are going/can go with your back, now that all that uncertainty and frustration is eliminated, it is reflected in a reduction of symptoms. Well, that's my totally unscientific theory! Whatever the cause, enjoy it and let's hope it continues!

loosened adhesions..
Yes, I think this is what happened...
 I'm going to have bunion surgery prior to more back surgery. The gimping gait will likely set off my spine again so I definately don't want to do this after surgery, tho at this moment I don't feel like scheduling either surgery!

surgical addiction
ans~ I think not~ had the first bunion done around 4 years ago and should have had the other one done sometime shortly after recovery from other (some people do them together) but getting around was too difficult as it was with my gait all destroyed~
Today I took a walk with friend and dogs ~ we were gone from 8a.m. to nearly 11a.m. and after that I went shopping and after that I did laundry. I'm still doing OK. Actually getting a headache from all my activities and little sleep tho the spine feels fine. Dr.D's office called to schedule surgery today I noted. Sitting brings about some discomfort but it's not maddening like it used to be. I know it can get to that after a period of time tho!
