Default Update

I received a call today that the spine stimulator trial was approved. I do not have very high hopes that it will work after reading about so many failures and inability to properly control pain. I will go in with my head held high and with a good attitude in hopes that it will work but I am not going to get my heart set on it working at all. If it does not work they are going to do another round of discograms and recommend the fusion and disc removal. This will be a huge step and a decision that I will have to do much research on. I want to make sure this will be my last and only option since it is such a major and risky surgery. I will update once the spinal stimulator surgery is done on March 12th.

Take Care,
Greg
