Default Lots done so far!

Exhausted and it is only Tuesday!

Got a tone of cortisone injections into the spasms, what a relief, then had ribs moved back into place!

Got a referral to UCSF rushed through insurance thanks to my awesome GP! She is truly 1 in a million, so lucky to have her as my GP! She freaked when she read the surgery order and got on the phone with my insurance to get the referral rushed through, am blessed to have her

Got insurance straightened out, was on wrong plan since the 1 st of the year, and I never would of known had a friend not told me!

And trying a new pain med with a histamine, lowest dose dilaudid so far so good, but about knocks me out, but is keeping the edge off the pain for sure...but the injections into the spasms helped the most!

More, but so far good getting it done! And most of the numbness has subsided today and tonight, think because of the cortisone injections, could of taken the swelling away from the nerves?? Don't know but can almost feel all teeth again, left leg still half numb, but not as bad as it was.

And for anyone with back problems I highly recommend looking into OMM specialist, mine has saved me from so much pain! Wish I knew more about that specialty many years ago, but glad now!

Will let you know what I find out from new doc, praying it is better than what is being offered
