I just read your message and I am so happy for you. It really helps when a doctor validates your pain and then has suggestions that will take care of the pain. Isn't it great that these doctors will take the time to answer our questions when we know how busy they are. These are the type of doctors who really care.
Keep us posted about your journey to being well.
