Hi there Ronnie, we have been wondering about you. Sounds like you are moving forward towards a diagnosis. Nice to see your name, not so nice to see that you are still dealing with your condition. Will you stay in touch and share the results of your MRI's with the community.

May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
Chris

Hi Chris
Yes, it has been a while since I've been on this site.
Lots of health issues going on.
Last year I was diagnosed with lung cancer (stage 1).
I had a nodule removed and the lymph nodes attached to it.
Thank God I didn't need any other treatments!
I'll get checked every 6 months.
Dealing with that took a lot out of me emotionally!!!!

Now I am back to dealing with my back.
I've been doing really well since surgery, as far as pain.
I've been concerned with my lack of leg strength so I went to see a new neurologist.
Among other things, he wanted me to go for PT.
I did and they screwed up my back and NOW I have pain.
I've stopped PT!!!!
The new doc also wanted MRIs, but based on his request, insurance turned him down.
I went to my neurosurgeon and they were turned down, too.
Only difference is that they fought for it and won!
So, we'll see.
I hope it will also answer some questions about the neuropathy!

Talk soon!
Ronnie
