I went to my spine Dr. today and we have come to a course of definite action for now... I am scared but I know he is pretty much the best there is and have placed my trust in God, him and well... he didnt mess Ferd up too bad (had to lighten it up a lil)
On Tues I will have another Facet block.. too hard to explain all of this stuff so if anyone is interested pm me or google it plz
Then instead of 2-3 week check ups I will go in every week for 3 months (the amount of time they have to wait between procedures
if the pain continues then happy happy joy joy.. if not then exactly 3 months later he will do a second Facet Block (2nd one has to be done for next thing to happen via insurance)
If this does not work within 10 days then he will do a procedure which he cuts and burns all the nerves to my L4 L5 and then if that does not work....
See we are working with 2 different injuries.. I have severed nerves causing Facet issues and I have 2 totally ripped disc's
If all of the above does not work he will do a procedure which he keeps me awake and cuts into the back and puts air into the disc and tests the amount pf pain that causes. If thats the source of the pain they will then go to surgery.
Instead of doing a fusion which was pretty much the only option there is a new surgery out for discectomy that instead of fusing it they go in and clip the disc and deflate it... causing there to be no major incision and also the recovery time is about half that of the other.
I am scared but I am also relieved that we are getting somewhere. When the second injury occured in the midst of fixing the first thing it kind of threw us all off track and its made this such a long process... I am just so thankful for my 2 wonderful doctors who are working to make this go as quickly as possible and for their knowledge.. They are awesome!!!
Praying!!! Will try to call you after church tonight. Love you much sister girl.

And Bless you too!
