Anyone here had back surgery?

Ken, Judy needs PT. Don't care what she thinks it makes a difference. I've heard people say they did the PT and everything is fine now. Then there's those that don't follow through with PT and claim the surgery was a waste of time. Convince her to give it a try.

Tony, hope your new chiropractor gives you some relief.

I mentioned before that the ortho surgeon I saw a 3 weeks ago said you have some arthritis. Maybe someday you'll need a replacement shoulder joint but not now. He had nothing more to offer. Saw a different Doc last week. He also said rotator cuff tear was minor and really didn't require surgery. He said the joint is some what misaligned and he felt that was causing part of the pain. So he gave me a cortisone shot which did help alot. He also wanted me to see this other Doc, saw him today. He zapped my arm with electrical pulses and stuck some needles in in different spots. Trying to determine what was causing the tingling and numbness in my hand. Carpal tunnel he thinks so now I have a wrist brace.
