Diane,
I'm glad you've finished the anxiety of the decision. Good riddance to pain. Here's hoping Dr. B returns you to 39 y.o. I hope to see you and Mark soon, when you're healthy and happy.

Hi Diane,

Sorry about your back problems! Will you have a two-level pending a discogram? You're in the best of hands for this brave decision. My very best.

Diane,

Making that decision is a majority of the battle with our complicated spine issues.

I agree that there may be some anxiety as the date approaches - however, I think there will be a sense of relief too.

Please feel free to post what your thoughts and feelings are as the date approaches. Having friends online really helped relieve any fears.

That week of March I will be out on seminar in Nevada - but I will keep checking in on your progress.

Take Care Diane,
Poncho

HI Diane,

I know exactly what you mean about walking like a 80 year old women. Even though I have seen very agile and strong women at that age It sure is wonderful to be able to have a surgery date and know each day is a day closer to better health. I will be over there too, so look out for another GPN Spiney. I hope all goes well with you and Mark, I'm sure Dr. B will take good care of you.

Regards,
Myriam
