Dear Blair,

I'm so sorry that you are still in pain. I look forward to meeting you tomorrow!

Mark

Blair,

I'm so sorry that you find yourself is so much pain, especially after hoping for your cure. We all know what it's like, not being able to sleep or waking up because of the pain but it's especially difficult 3 years after your surgery.

I do hope that you'll find relief soon and know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Blair,

I know that I am not a "failed" ADR recipient (yet, atleast, not at this point) -
However, one think I do know something about first hand is living in chronic pain.

I hope that your physicians and Mark can help you get to the bottom of this.

Sincerely,
Poncho

Hey guys thanks for all your kind words :)
I was a tad bit frustrated this morning, didnt help that my next door neighbor was shreaking like a hyenna from 2-3:30am.. it was awesome! lol
So I'm going in to see Dr. Regan tomorrow and hopefully I'll find out some answers.
Excited to grab coffee with you Mark see ya tomorrow (and your client).
I think it's great how this is such a support forum and people care. I hope everyone had an amazing new years celebration and that 2007 will be a better yr than 2006.
You guys rock! :D

Blair,

I'm so sorry you are in such pain. I'm considering spine surgery but experiences like yours are making me research my options very carefully. I will pray that God will reduce your pain and provide healing for you. I hope that others in this forum will pray for you.

Sincerely, Steve

Steve - I am part of 5% of the patients to have this lovely problem so I was one of the "lucky" ones... :p hey you have to laugh, well at least I do!
Anyways, I am less mad today, I saw my doctor and found out some good but bad news. The good news - the rhizotomy helped my left facet joint issue which has been the cause of massive pain for the past 2 yrs but the bad news is (which I already knew) that my right facet joint is now acting up. So I'm going in for a CT scan on Friday then back to Dr. Regan's office the following week then figure out what to do next. All I want is to be ok for this upcoming semester, and my departing words to my back are: BRING IT B#*$*%H! :D
