My brother started to have back problem in 12-04. He walked like a 80 year old man. His legs were always numb and he was always in pain.
He went back to Peru where we came from and it took him 9 month to decide to have surgery after all kind of treatments, Chiropractors, thermal bath, acupuncture, etc.

He was operated by two doctors and one to supervise the two. Good doctors. Peruvian doctors have good reputations. I had a major surgery there too.

The beauty of all this, no only my brother is completely heal, and walking without pain and straight, but it only cost him $5,000 dollars. The surgery took 4 hours. It was supposed to take 2 hours, but since my brother was premi. there was something else that needed correction .

I must add, prayers also works. He was very afraid to have the surgery but I prayed over that fear because the doctors told him that if he waited, it would be worse since he is now 62 years old.

Thanks to the doctors in Peru and to JESUS!!!!!!!! my brother is heal and in good spirit. P.S. one of the doctors was related to one of my brother's friend. That explain the cost but it's cheaper there even if you don't know a doctor. Maybe a few thousand more, no more than 8 K

I've has 2 on my back so far, plus others on my legs.

No matter haw many surgeries a person has, each one is just as worrysome as the first. I guess it because in the back of your mind, you know you are playing the odds.

You are right, a person can develop permanent nerve damage and other serious problems if it isn't watched and treated properly.

Glad your brother is doing well.
