ToughWeek

Sorry its taken so long to write about the wedding, but we've had a really bad week. My poor hubby had his brain surgery, chemo and radiation and came through all of it with flying colors. Everyone especially his Doctors were amazed b y his strength and attitude., Then his back startred up again, He has been in excrusating pain all week. Pain starts in lower back and then down the leg. Went to back specialist, had a MRI and x ray. He haS SPINAL STENOSIS, scar tissue from back surgery in the 1990's. deteriating discs etc. He went yesterday for pain management shots and so far it hasn't helped. I'm at a loss what to do next. Please pray for him and that he gets relief.Pain pills don't help either.

  2. Oh, no...I had hoped the pain shots would work. Maybe Dr. Sunnergren is right and you should press the orthopedic doctor about surgery.

  3. Larry and you are on my prayer list. DH had back surgery 3 years ago. I'm so glad the other surgery went well. Take care of yourselves. Hugs.
