Paging Mr. Rocky !
« on: January 13, 2007, 12:15:26 pm »
OK mister! I have been waiiiittttiiiinnnnnggggg for you to tell us what the deal is with your MRI results. I know it was potentially serious, and I have been worried about you. I haven't seen you in the forums for a bit, and I'm hoping that this is something that hasn't flipped your world upside down.
Are you OK honey? I'm worried about you. ???

Hey Lisa, Rod, and Nadine

Page received.

Until I can get the problem with my back resolved it's impossible for me to sit at the computer for any length of time, it causes too much pain.

I saw my doctor again yesterday and they are scheduling me to see a neuro-surgeon in the next week or so.  He also changed the Vicodin for Percoset (sp?).  I'm unwilling to take pain medication in the daytime and will only use it temporarily at night as long as we have a treatment plan in place to address the situation.  Otherwise I feel all I am doing is masking the symptoms and not solving the problem.  (I can't take the Vicodin it messes me up.)  It appears as though we are beginning to move toward finding an effective solution and that's a good thing.

Thanks guys for checking up on me, but don't worry, this isn't anything more than the wear and tear of old age catching up with me.

Man, I know what you mean.  Everything over 50 was a struggle to maintain. My best wishes for you.  I hope everything works out for you.

Yaaaaahhhhh our dear Rockila is going to be OK...I'm relieved that you and your doctors are getting to the bottom of those awful, debilitating back problems.  Because the very first thing I intend to do in September in California is to see you from 50 yards away and to run as fast as I can (with my luggage) and to leap up onto that back of yours !!!

So you had better be in shape honey !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ;)

Glad to hear from you Rocky and that it wasn't the cause of a plane clipping your legs.  :D Get well soon.

I was leary of such findings, and the long absence was only confirming my thoughts. I hope that you are able to come to a comfortable resolution. I am sorry that you can't spend time in the chair. I have problems sitting in my computer chair too.
I just knew I was missing you. I love you so dearly, and am deeply sorry that you are in so much discomfort.
I am glad to know that you have been able to peek in when able though.
Damn Fool should be taking really good care of you, because you are a rare gem indeed.
Kisses all over your openings......except SOME places! ::)        :-*


PS- I hope you don't think you can get over on me just because I feel badly for you JUST THIS ONE TIME!
