Hi again,

I know its been a long time but things have been shit.  I should have been on here everyday but I've just been a bit depressed...

The surgery/procedure didn't work!!!!!     

The Dr. said I was the 5% who doesn't respond to the procedure.  and that I'm the 1% of the population that doesn't respond to normal therapies; pills etc....

She referred me to a pain clinic specialist Dr. who does some experimental nerve stimulation she said there isn't anything else she knows to try but my insurance doesn't cover it of course. 

Tomorrow we have another appt. and I'm going to talk to her about using medicinal alternative for pain control etc.  I "stumbled" upon it at a party & have found that it "cures" me of my pain, I can eat, and there aren't any shitty side effects unlike my Imitrex & Flurbiprofen and unlike them both I don't have to limit my dosage so that I don't get rebound.  We'll see what she has to say.....

Thanks for listening out there!
