Had an MRI today that confirmed that the herniated disc I had repaired Dec 23 is herniated again. Same symptoms plus numbness in the saddle area.

Try one of them decompression machines. Not that moronic teeter bullshit. Just gentle decompression for 20-30 minutes. Feels fantastic.

I have a compression fracture on the T12. Might work well for that.

The whole premise makes so much sense for me. Gently expand the joint space, encourage more blood and plasma flow which in my mind equals more healing.

I mentioned this before here. I had this guy with meat hooks for hands who would manipulate my vertebrae in my neck and lower back and do magic in one session. It was crazy expensive but he would have shit lined up the way it’s supposed to be in a matter of an hour or so.

He's already received his noose. He's just waiting on the chair to be delivered.

Well I finally have an appt with the surgeon on Feb 13. Then I'll get all my options as to what can be done.

I'm pretty sure I'm looking at surgery again but we'll see.

Well back surgery is scheduled for April 28. Pretty good time considering how screwed up the healthcare system is right now.

I drove home from the oregon coast yesterday after a sex and fun filled weekend thinking I could not possibly be any happier. I hope that helps.

Epic is the bomb. It'll take office staff and doctors a LITTLE learning, but it's the most utilized EMR out there. Also, any hospital that uses it can easily transfer records, labs, images. It's amazing.

I'm kind of a big deal because I know 4 different Epic modules.
