This waiting for the MRI to be done and the blood test for Diabetes to come back is driving me up a wall. Have been reading up on nerve compression, what a bummer. I really don't want to have back surgery. It takes so long to get over those types of surgery, atleast it did with my neck surgery. Ya know, it's bad enough to have FM but then when we gotta add some other types of problems to it... Oh, well. I hope you all are having a better day than me. My pain level isn't the big thing today for me, it's the weird feelings in my legs and the numbness from all the pain meds that's getting to me. Maybe I have a teensy tiny bit of the poor me's, too. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Have a good one!

I don\'t know if I asked you this already or not soo..Have you heard of a Rhyzotomy? Less invasive than surgery and takes care of those pesky nerves(if you are candidate) I would check it out. I have had 3 now and works GREAT!

No, I haven\'t heard of it. Will sure ask the doc about it if the MRI shows that I need surgery. I don\'t even know what it is to be honest with you. Is it a type of surgery? I sure do appreciate all of the great people on this website. You are all so helpful. Thanks again, and I hope you have a great day! Cheryl
