Happy New Year To Me!

Nerves on fire
Relief at last!
After weeks of agony, I got relief on Thursday from a spine specialist, who administered several lumbar-spine adjustments and several epidural blocks.  These were not pleasant procedures, but they have tamped down all the leg pain and most of the weird sensations (tingling, burning, etc.).  I finally got a full night's sleep on New Year's Eve!

So, fellow infidels, it's back to blogging for me.

The spine specialist doesn't know exactly what is going on with my back and leg, but he'll figure out the problem. He's the most respected spine specialist on the East Coast.

Hopefully 2015 will be for you both a happy & Healthy Year.

PS: Have to wear now continuously a back brace, due to spinal damage, still can't stand up for a long time.

The relief my be temporary. If it is, these injections will serve as tools for diagnosis.
