I had 5 surgeon's tell me they could not do it and all but 1 recommended Dr. Esses who literally wrote the book.
I have never been so scared with so much time to think about it. It's taking my every waking thought since every movement is meet with some pain.
My car makes me feel better but only when the SC is working.

I'm Sorry to hear that,
& Good Luck Marine with the operation!
