Thanks Mike, I've been doing PT for several months now. The pain comes less often, but it's still very much there and just as intense when it hits. I tried traction, too, but it's short lived. Believe me, I'll try just about anything to stay off an operating table. The short version? 6 doctors, 2 PT therapists, 1 chiropractor, 1 massage therapist, and 1 acupuncturist later, I'm headed for surgery... I'll send Merlyn an email. Thanks...
