BAXTER

Hi Noslen,

If I were you, I would get to a doctor ASAP, as you may have caused some severe damage, especially seeing how this has happened before.

I would try to use ice in the meantime.

I certainly wouldn't wait any longer

I know it's embarrassing, but it can't be any worse than what John Bobbit went through !!

Good luck, and please keep us posted.

I think this is a serious problem.

Take Care,
Baxter



------------------
Two level laminectomy fusion L5-S1 & L2-3 done on 12/6/02.
Fifteen inch scar from the very top of butt crack (sorry), to the bra line.
BAK cages, rods & screws.(Titanium)
My pelvic bone was used for grafting.
Praying that the other two discs in between, won't have to be fused later, as I was told it was a possibility, due to the other two discs in between, not being in that great of shape.
Doc didn't want to fuse four levels, unless it is really necessary.
I would hate to repeat the surgery, as the recovery period, is so very painful.
I also have a free fragment in my T11-12 area, that I'm still refusing surgery for, at this point in time.
That surgery is way too dangerous for me to consider, until if affects my being able to walk.
