I did not read the thread but I would suggest a Neurologist working in close consultation with an Orthopedic Surgeon. And get three opinions. Prayers to your complete recovery.
Thank you for the prayers!
I see a neurologist (back surgery), orthopedist (pain management), lung doc (BPEs), PCP, plus several other specialists. At this point, they are now recommending an implanted Spinal Cord Stimulator, and that is what I am worried about. I’m not sure what my insurance’s policy is about 2nd opinions...unfortunately, while applying for disability, I’m having to rely on state insurance. :(
