Thought I posted this last night but I guess the medication disallowed a successful post. Anyhow:
First 2 were reconstructions on my face to patch up the bones and allow me to breathe through my nose. Spent 3 days in Ibn Sina 10th Combat Support Hospital, Baghdad, Iraq in '06. and a plastics reconstruction for same problem in '07. Had major back surgery in 2010 and today a minor trial to help eradicate constant pain. If it works, permanent installment in 4-6 weeks. Need positive thoughts...not sure if prayers work on me.
Today: Supposed to be a stim unit to interrupt pain signals and improve my quality of life.
2010...18 staples,7" incision. 4 screws, 2 rods and lots of pain. And that pesky drain tube sewed to my skin...rollover wrong and OUCH!
I would do it all again. There was nothing I wouldn't have done for those on my left and right. I would like to reduce my narcotic level going 2.5 years but my options are slim.
