Re: Group Members-Lorretta/ introduction

[Guest guest]

Hi Bennie

I am a lurker and have been since I joined. This is the first post that I have

made to the group. I have been reading all the posts and I really appreciate all

the posts from everyone but especially yours. I love reading yours as they are

very informative and caring.

I have back problems such as DDD. spinal stenosis, a compression fracture at T-9

that never healed, bone spurs, osteoarthtritis, etc in my thoracic spine. I had

an MRI recently of my thoracic spine and one on my lower back.

I have to make an appointment with the neurosurgeon that read my last MRI to

read these other ones. Please don't stop posting. Your posts are very

informative and caring.

love and hugs

Loretta

Loretta.

Thank You and for writing and glad to just research for myself and then when I

find something I find I forward on. I am not a Doctor and never want anyone to

seek or stop any medical treatment because of something I wrote.

It is such a painful journey and today I had a myelogram that looked like the

front part is not fused but back is fused but cannot really be sure unless you

are opened up and look around.

I can relate to the DDD stenosis my T-9 fracture healed and the neuroradilogist

went over my films, they were better somewhat than last year so the RACZ

procedure I had done to remove scar tissue helped. Otherwise, same ole stuff,

we can't get into the place i hurt to see if there is something sticking a nerve

or something else.

I know you have pain and understand that anything I can say, you would

understand what I say about pain. I hope you find the news you need with the

neurosurgeon. Let us know what you find out and thanks for the kind remarks, I

appreciate it and hugs right back at ya. Bennie
