Group,

Has anyone gone through or is going through that part of pain management where

you see a Physical therapist and have traction?

This is the first thing that has been applied to me and traction seems to feel

good but does it help in the long run? I am also doing chin tucks and head

rolls. It is going on the third week now.

My PT guy is very nice;he has been one for 20 years and he said after looking

at the MRI report that I will probably have cervical fusion but not until they

expire all alternatives. After reading some of your experiences with lumbar and

cervical epidurals I decided against having one.

I have talked with someone who went through " pain management " for almost 20

years before the Dr did fusion. Is the surgery that dangerous? Why the

reluctance? With my rotator cuff they hardly hesitated and I have had both

shoulders done.

Have a blessed day.
