Thanks Folks.. Truley greatful for the information... I'm sorry I took way to long to respond. I actualy have been dealing with the insurance game and what i'm really reponsible for. I had to go to get an MRI yeasterday and just couldnt do it due to my sever clausterphobia (sp) and the deformity. I tried the open one and they could fit me in.. quite painful.. picture Dorf golf when Tim Conway gets pushed dowm... So I'm headed into NYC on Monday to do the stand up MRI. WOW.. I can do this... 40 inch plasma to watch ..now If I could have my coffee... Score....

I also have a"pencil " date for my surgery.. end of JAn.. I'll keep you posted... thanks for the support anf prayers...

Peace !
