September 1, 2010

The saga continues. I have been having an incredible amout of pain over the last two months and it was baffling to everyone. When I went to the pain management doctor, he ordered an MRI which I had done on Monday. He just called me this morning to tell me I have a compression fracture of thoracic 7 vertebrae. So now, I will be having surgery for that. The good news...no evidence of metastasis. The surgery should be minor if it's what I'm thinking. Of course, I still have to see the orthopedic spine surgeon. Linda
