Thanks guys ,I saw the surgeon yesterday and will be having an MRI as soon as insurance approves it .He had a batch of x rays done and said he could help me but will decide which way to proceed after the MRI is done .He did say he might be able to give me cortisone shots instead of surgery depending on how bad things are.

Last week I had x rays done and they did not like what they saw .They have me set up for an MRI tomorrow afternoon and then I see Dr. Kelley again on Thursday to see what happens next .I have been trying to get my yardwork slowly done before he tells me I cant do that for a while .

Had an MRI on my shoulder several years ago, it is loud. If you have access to a tractor ask Tony how you can fix your back with it, he's fixed his a couple of times.

Seriously, I hope they fix you up like new. I've had kidney stones and a fractured pelvis but I know back pain is the worst so I can only imagine. Good luck John.

Good luck with Doc Kelley tomorrow John...hoping for an easy fix.
He's one of the best around here according to our research. Anne sees him again next week, I think.
