Thanks John for the information on Cryotherapy. I don't believe that it sounds like something I would like to try. I don't like to be cold. I just keep praying that the doctors will come up with something that could help, But as some one said "there is not magic pill". I would be interested to try most anything, except being "frozen"!.

I don't remember the details of what I read about cryo but it definitely wasn't about the lowering of the body temperature. It was more like a laser probe but uses freezing instead. It apparently stops the pain sensors from sending signals but does not damage the nerve itself. I'll try to find the article that I read. It was very encouraging.
