Hi lovely people just wondering if anyone else has had these procedures either at the same time or separately? (please excuse me if I have used the wrong terminology hehe this stuff is a pretty steep learning curve) Thanks in advance and hugs to you all :)

Here are some great sites for you to go to: So sorry you are having all this, but I would image they will do them separately.

Hugs Hi Jenn, I am actually ok :) , the hardest thing at the moment is waiting to see the NS on the 23rd, I just want to know what is likely or going to happen and get direct answers and diagnosis (I only know what is on the Mri and what I have learned from research which is a bit hard without a defined diagnosis) gosh hope that makes sense :)

Thank you so much for your prayers and asking how I am it really does mean allot hugs :)

Hi ati74,

I totally understand where you are coming from. I can't see my NS until 8/28. I want to get the surgery get PT scheduled and keep this thing from progressiing worse than it already has.

Take care,

Nykki
