    • Close Chronic Pain

      July 2007 I had been having bad back pain for a month, I woke up from a nap and couldn’t move, I had my wife take me to the ER, I was diagnosed with…Sciatica, 3 burst disks L4, L5, & S1, Spinal stenosis, and Degenerative Spinal Arthritis. I had surgery December 2007 and have gotten worse as time goes on. When I woke up in the recovery room the Surgeon came in and said "I am sorry to have to tell you this, but I accidently cut your spinal cord during the surgery" IDIOT!! The pain is constant.
