I meant to say, I stopped walking and getting up 5 different times. after Rehab for a week I learn how to walk and gain my strength, but I had little help in chronic pain. All the time waiting for answers. I went to the main campus at Cleveland Clinic, where the top surgeon said. "Cleveland Clinic does not have the equipment nor the sills to operate. That I will eventually be bed ridden and to get used to it. Not to use the internet, you tube and medical spine books."
Then I went back to my Pain Management doctor where I passed the trials for Nerve Ablation. I was originally scheduled to have it done on August 19. Now Medicare denied me 4 days before procedure.
This caused me more pain, became more depressed, and felt like committing suicide or would kill someone if pushed without intentions to do so. I went to Emergency, where I got a morphine shot. This helped my pain and depression for a few days.
I was very afraid that I would start to not walk again, but did not happen this time. Then this Friday,
I got a call from Pain Management that Medicare approved procedure on September 10. My doctor was able to expedite appeal, because of Medicare incompetence. I ask for your prayers and it will reduce most of my pain so I can have a life.

Thank you for listening and hope everyone can get better.
