Happy Dance

No surgery for me!

Yay!
(well, not now anyway)

However, nothing can be done for the nerve damage.
Which kind of sucks.
Not the answer I wanted,
but having answers is comforting in a way.
He believes my nerve damage is a combination of trauma (car accident) , possibly years of working around farm chemicals, maybe MS.

MS.
 not totally ruled out at this point.
(I saw a neurologist about this several years ago and she said I did not have MS at that time)

Que sera sera.

I had an MRI a couple weeks ago...

I saw my doctor at the pain clinic last week.  
(I have to say I love him, he is like a tall, skinny, kinda nerdy Marcus Welby)
(Does anyone remember Marcus Welby? )
Have been having neck issues again, losing feeling in my hands.

Not good news.

Meeting with Dr Davis tomorrow.
He is the neurosurgeon that fused my spine. 
I don't know if he will recommend surgery or not.
But thinking they wouldn't refer me directly to the surgeon if something is up.

I doubt I will sleep a wink tonight.
