Thanks Godzilla. I have a ruptured disk and the doc has tried a couple of things already, but none of them are working. Tomorrow, I’m going in and he’s going to be poking about eight different needles in between my disks and seeing if that helps. I have had rocks, tiny smooth rocks glued to the bottom of my right foot for almost two years now. Well, that is what it feels like. I can’t remember the name of the procedure, it’s long, but it doesn’t take very long. The anesthesiologist comes in and deadens my lower back and then the pain doctor comes in and inserts drugs and other good stuff in between some disks, then then everybody goes home.

The doc said I should feel better anytime between a couple of hours to a couple of weeks. I really hope the former. If this procedure doesn’t work, they could stick a huge needle in my back and suck some stuff out and then it’s implant a device in my back that counteracts the pain. I really hope that the operation tomorrow works. I had major back surgery years ago and I couldn’t go back to work for almost six months. I don’t want that to happen again.

And Godzilla, honestly, thanks for the prayers.
