I'm not understanding all of your PT right now. My wife saw the doctor for the first time and was on the operating table less than five weeks later. No injections, no PT, no nothing.

Willy: I want to postpone the surgery to sometime in late July or early August. Too many other things going on right now. The whole purpose is to keep me functional until then. Depending on how the next couple of weeks go, will tell the story. Last injection is Thursday, I finish my round of PT this coming Friday, and go from there. The PT has actually helped improve my range of motion.
The wife's new treatment is finished for now, it appears to be working...She has to wait six months then they will re-evaluate.
The MIL, well, I'm not sure. I still don't understand why they didn't see this "mass" on her spine last December. She is not the most co-operative patient, and would rather scream in pain than articulate where she feels the most discomfort.
Thursday, she refused the x-ray, and my wife had to over rule her. She was sedated, this time, so she probably didn't give the x-ray tech a difficult time.
I want to thank everyone for their Kind Thoughts and comments and your prayers, during this rough spot in our lives. The MIL is scheduled for surgery tomorrow, mid morning. Hopefully, everything will go well. Of course, she is 87. Anything can happen.
