I went to a Pain Management doctor this morning and after the examination, he decided on 2 Neuroplasty injections into my Lumber 4 and 5 discs. These shots contain a couple of different medicines that will reduce the swelling of the discs and help them to move back into the space between the vertebre and it will also create an appropriate amount of fluid in these 2 areas.
I go in Wednesday morning (17th) and will have an IV sedation for the procedure. (thank God!) If the shots don't relieve the pain as they should (75% success rate), then I will be sent to a neurosurgeon.
So lets pray the shots work.
So I leave you with pictures of my wonderful husband and I :)

IV sedation is wonderful. I hope that the shots help you and you can be painfree. I think that most people, without meaning to, so take advantage of their good health. I know I probably did until I created such a lengthy medical history. I don't like it particularly but I am grateful that God gives me lots more "good" days than "bad" ones. I hope you are feeling much better after it's over.
Well, at least you got some cute pics from your cruise.
Ya'll look so cute!
Good post.
