Diagnosed with DDD in Nov, 2007. MRI, EMG
C3/4 C4/5 C5/6 C6/7
Surgery 06.04.08--C5/6 and C6/7 w/Prodisc
C4/5 deterioration progressing quickly
MRI on lumbar shows disc herniation at L5/S1, stenosis at L3/4, L4/5, spondylosis and DDD at L2 through S1 in July, 2009
Nerve Root, Facet Injections and Epidural every 3 months. Ongoing treatment for continued degeneration.
That has got to be one of the best games I have ever seen! Of course it helps that my team won.Though not quite the magnitude, it ranks right up there with the famous Jack Morris (bone to Tiger fans) Game 7 and Kirby Puckett Game 6 of the 1991 World Series.
Tigers fans have to be disappointed, but I have a lot of respect for that team. I was partially hoping for Detroit to give the city something to rally around, but I was hoping even more so to give ME something to think about besides my surgery. I am now one week out and the Twins (win or lose) will be a great diversion!

2009 L4-L5 Fusion ("Gill Procedure . . . .")
Surgery date: 14 October 2009
CL, Pete and Terry,
As a Tiger fan I am disappointed in the outcome of the game. Leyland made some questionable strategy moves that he alone must answer for. As far as the game goes, it was awesome to watch two teams battle it out like they did.
The Twins deserved that win and the Title. They out played the entire division. Congratulations to the Twins and their fans.
Terry -- What kind of coffee do you want? The wife will let me know soon when we will get up there.
Now Twins, go stomp theout of the Stankees.
