A Bit of Good News

Hi All: I don't usually send these out, But I feel so good about whats
happening I just had to share.
I think you all know I've been having alot of trouble with my back and
legs. Well after MRI's and appt. after appt. I was finally sent to a pain
clinic. Their first and most appealing thing was an injection of somekind of
fatty tissue with steroids, injected around the spinal cord to cussion the
nerves. I do have disentagrating disks. But that would only be helped by
surgery, Not my options yet. In my opinion. Well I had my first injection on
Wed. He said it would be 3 or 4 days to feel any relief. And I do. I go back
on the 13th, and if I'm still having any problems, they will do 1 more
injection. This I am told may or maynot work. It depends on whether my body
will accept the fatty tissue injected. What it is?? I don't remember what he
called it. This is not a permanent solution, But for now it's starting to
work. He said if it works for me, it might last a year or up to 3. It can be
repeated If my body excepts these treatments. At least I'm walking fairly
good today LOL.
Hope you are all doing well.
