Hi Maria,

(I e-mailed this message to you, but it was returned, so I guess you've changed your providers.)

I'm just checking to see how you are feeling now that your scar tissue
has been removed. It was in June that we exchanged e-mail messages. I
still have my scar tissue........and PAIN! It seems to be getting
worse. I didn't know scar tissue could keep growing, but that must be
the case. I told my doctor about the wydase injections. He said he'd
heard of them, but he felt that the scar tissue would return. Did your
doctor indicate that could happen? Are you still without pain?

Friends, relatives, and my husband have been after me for months to get
a third diagnosis. My doctor suggested I go to a spine care clinic in
the Bay Area (I'm from California). They would do a lot of tests and
(hopefully) come up with a solution for my pain. I don't want to just
cover up the pain, but to remove the source (if they can do that).
Haven't heard from the clinic yet, but I imagine I will go down there
next month.

I would really like to know how you're doing. If the treatments have
alleviated your problem, I will tell the clinic doctors about that.

Thanks for listening.

Diane McGill
