Well we are set up for Easter egg hunt tomorrow, hopefully I'll make through the whole thing, right just from today helping set up my back is killing me.

Bad day with pain

Well today has not been a very good day, I have had to take 3 pain pills, more then usual. I haven't done any out of the ordinary today. Yet back hurts.

March 28
Well I started this a couple days ago, but caring for a four years old can keep you busy. I will be starting my journey with spinal cord simulator on April 16.
Little bit about myself, I have been married for 33 years, I am retired from the army, I was in for 20 years and have been retired from the Army 20 years in July 2013. Life goes fast.
I am a survival of breast cancer for 8 years come June. My back problems started in 1998. I have had three surgeries, 1998, 2008, 2009. All three were a successful for a few years. Now I am in need of fusion for S1/L4 and then L1/L2, the top disk has moved 10mm which caused quite a bit of pain. My insurance Tri-Care prime has disapproved this last surgery I need four times since September.
So now my DR are recommending the spinal cord simulator, and my insurance approved. I first have to go through the trial of the simulator and if its successful, they will put in my back. I am holding all my hope that this will work.
