DEAR K, AS I HAVE POSTED EARLIER, AND OUR ROBIN M IS CORRECT, YOU
NEED TO FIND A PAIN MANAGEMENT DOCTOR, AND ALWAYS SEEK A SECOND OPINION
ON ANY SURGERY, PLEASE REMEMBER THAT, DONT JUMP INTO ANY SURGERY
PLEASE...AGAIN ROBIN M, AND I ARE SPEAKING FROM OUR EXPERIENCES ONLY, SO
PLEASE FIND A PAIN DOCTOR, AND MAYBE ANOTHER OPINION AS TO WHAT IS
WRONG..ANY HELP I CAN GIVE JUST EMAIL ME, SENDING LOVE, AND PRAYERS, AND
FORGIVE ME MISSPELLING YOUR BEAUTIFUL NAME..CINDY SHRUHAN
