More neurosurgeon fun!
I have an appointment to see my neurosurgeon again today.
He’s going to stick a couple more of those 4 inch needles into my back… all the way to the bone… and inject me with stuff again. Fortunately, this will be the last time that they have to do that. If the pain around the screws come back, they’ll go in and remove the hardware.
That’s supposed to be a fairly easy procedure… check into the hospital in the morning, go home that night. Of course, last time I went under the knife, I almost died (complications due to anesthesia). Good times!
Other news:
Yesterday was my brother-in-law’s birthday. We all met up at the Season Ticket for drinks and such, then they went off to watch the Spokane Chiefs take on the Seattle Thunderbirds. Our Chiefs got their butts trounced (3 -6). I really wanted to go, but I had to work the damn graveyard shift (so I had to go home and get a nap in).
“Fortunately, this will be the last time that they have to do that.”
😀
1Totally.
He told me today that when this shot wears off they’re gonna schedule me for hardware removal.
I’m going to ask to see if I can keep what they take out.
2That would be totally cool! Keep them on a jar on your desk!
