@loriesco I don't mean to be rude here, but I believe that this site is for sharing experiences, not diagnosing or explaining physiology. By sharing experiences, we can learn from one another and then take that to our doctors for further discussion and research. My kind suggestion would be to share an experience that you've had and allow the person to educate themselves. For instance, I learned that a neurosurgeon did back surgeries from a comment that you and another mentioned, and that my doctors never advised me of! From that little tidbit, I hope to speak to one in the coming weeks to see if I might be a candidate for a minimally invasive laminectomy procedure. I am so grateful for that shared experience!

I hope you have a great day!

@steveinmontana I did share my experiences and what I learned from them. Its been 30 years now. Most people don't have access to doctors, nor do they justify paying for them. So I am being helpful. In addition, I had YEARS in university physiology so maybe that is some of that knowledge shining through as well. I do not diagnose; however, people have clearly found that my direction has yielded in the direction I was pointing to. I have lifelong piriformis disorder and sciatica. I learned tons about the physiology of that. You too, have a great day!

@steveinmontana ~ Holding good thoughts for you Steve that you find a great neurosurgeon!

@steveinmontana Tomorrow I’m having a minimally invasive endoscopic (not open) 2-level laminectomy. I have a great neurosurgeon from Johns Hopkins who was rated a top doc in MD. He says there is only one nickel hole incision & it’s an out patient surgery. I’ll let everyone know how the surgery & recovery goes. Wish me luck!
