Hi Linda
I've been thinking about you and wondering how your appointment went yesterday. Did Dr. Jerk cooperate with increasing your meds to where you were before? I get to go see Dr. Jerk #2 Monday. Last time I went he wanted to try doing some shots (I can't think of the name of them) to test to see if I would be a candidate for Botox (in my back)LOL Then when I got home I thought I remembered doing that before, so I called and sure enough, I had already had it done and it failed. Good thing I remembered! He's really pushing me to go see the surgeon in Phoenix, but I keep telling him I'm scared to death of surgery. My family is also pushing me. I'm still waiting for the phone consultation, he should be getting the X-rays. I am not going to be pushed into surgery by him or my family. My husband totally understands why I don't want more surgery, because everything the doctors have done to me so far, including the EPI's, have only made me worse. Well, enough about me! I'm anxious to hear how it went yesterday, so whenever you have time, let me know, ok?
Your friend,

Whoops! I just saw you already posted, Linda. I'm sorry, I didn't see it. Anyway, I thought of the name of the shots I couldn't think of. They were trigger point injections.
