Well after all the chiros, epidurals,MRI's the conclusion is I need back surgery. It is a out patient deal and the Doc will take off some bone spur and a little part of a disc that is putting pressure on a nerve. I hate having to do this especially with the problems I had with AVR but it's either succomb to the knife again or just live with the pain and discomfort. It is suppose to be a short little micro surgery, however I will have to go under for it and of course stop my coumadin again. Recovery is pretty quick with some soreness for a week or so and then clean bill of heath after 2-3 weeks. This prolly should not go on this forum but what can I say. Haven't set the date yet, just saw the ortho surgeon today and he was readyu to sign me up. I told him I have to think about it for at least one night.
