If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Currently fighting this...trying to avoid surgery by stretches, shots, etc. Think they do this these days with minimally invasive surgery but it's still surgery therefore trying to avoid if possible.

Sorry Janet. I just answered your post on the Main Forum if you don't mind going back there. Mine certainly was not minimally invasive but I know it depends on exactly needs to be done.
Blessings.

It sounds like you had "the works/full service." Yes it depends on what they're doing but I understand a lot more back surgery is done MIS these days. What I had done decades ago involved a long incision + 10 day hospital stay now can be done MIS & go home same day...practically drive-thru  Anyways, thrilled to hear how well you've improved. I had a good outcome w/back surgery in medieval times. You made the right decision for you.

Jay- Hi I have limb pain and tingling all day every day from stenosis. I am not convinced yet that it would be worth it for me to have surgery.
It is amazing how much pain we can get used. But finding good endorphins and stuff to laugh at become increasingly difficult.
Please keep me posted, I care.
