Re: After surgery

Reason why I asked because last Saturday I got goosebumps on my left arm but only in some spots as well as on my shoulder , tricep and my back. It's the 1st time since my injury in June 06. I'm about 7 weeks post surgery now. Does the make sense?

Re: What expect after surgery?

<t>Well my surgery went very well. It was just over 8 hrs. The Dr's got enough nerves from my chest/rib area to do the graft without having to take any nerves from my leg. They cut me from just below my ear to the middle of my chest. I got about 100 staples. The good thing is the pain I had before t...

Re: Treatments

<t>They are avulsed what I meant to say was that the Dr said my nerves and muscle are still good but they are not attached to the spine. I guess that means they are not dead yet. I hope that makes more sense. Thru microcurrent treatment they see that the nerves are firing but no signal is getting to...
