Welcome to our humble family!

I am glad you got Laurie’s book, it has helped many people, all kinds of patients. How did the MRI go? Don’t forget to request the digital images on CD, and of course the radiologist’s report.

Scar tissue is tricky, and most definitely COULD be a problem. Is that causing your symptoms? This is where a good specialist can help, e.g. an interventional radiologist (hard to find these types…Tim – any ideas?!)

On the facet issues, better to look into these issues now, rather than later. There is TONS of information on this important issue, going back to 2004. Do a search on this. See the links above?!

Your pain issue sounds nasty. Did you have any luck with any natural stuff? E.g. magnesium? Herbs? Did you cycle through all the NSAIDs?

Hope this helps….
