Hello Family.....

Well the Doc indicates the MRI of the spine seems Not to be cancerous! But...does seem to be a abnormality of the T6 vertabrae in the spine probably due to radiation in that area about 1.5 yrs ago.

So...simply live with some back pain and spasms and if it gets worse, to see an orthopedic Doc.

SO... life is to carry on !!!!


Take care...

    Great News! I'm sure you'll do just fine. You might want to see an orthopedic dr before it gets worse, to seen if there's anything that can be done to help it. I wish you the best. Lori

    It's a strange old game, you learn it slow ...
    One step forward and it's back to go
    You're standin' on the throttle, you're standin' on the brake ...
    Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug ...

    With apologies to Mark Knopfler, time to stand on the throttle, Dave! Excellent news!
