Plans changed heading to california tomorrow.
I had a visit with an orthopedic surgeon locally. He was concerned about waiting to treat the decompression. He wanted to operate on me next week.
I don't think Dr. Bae had yet looked at my new MRI because when I contacted his assistant to ask about my progressing symptoms Dr. Bae called me back later that night. He said that it can not wait, it needs to be treated before the 18th of June.
I'll start the drive to California tomorrow, sounds like I'll be having 2 surgeries next week.
