“Never Give Up!” How many times have I advised that. Now it is getting pretty painful for me and I need to take my own advise.

Five weeks ago, after enduring a lot of neck, shoulder, and back pain, I had an MRI done. After enduring the Vertigo for 4 weeks (yuck) I was upset to hear it can come back and probably will. Then the Pain Clinic told me the I have 3 cervical discs that are herniated, two more herniated just below my scapula, and two at the site of my original spinal cord injury (at my waist). Dog gone it, what’s a girl to do. WELL, NEVER GIVE UP! I am choosing conservative treatment. I asked if I could continue exercising and I CAN! In the midst of all this, the room has stopped spinning and I can finally hear in my left ear, also stand the bright light of the computer. Life and it’s little surprises! I have missed all of you….terribly! Enough with the back… life goes on. One thing about the world spinning, you sure don’t want to eat. Must be an easier way then that to maintain. I will never catch up the blogs but I am back in the battle. Bless all of you! Love, Marge

    Oh Marge, welcome home :) You have always been one of my inspirations here at BuddySlim. You have been sorely missed.

    So glad the vertigo is gone, I’ve heard of it but wasn’t sure exactly what it was.

    Take care and I’m anxious to see more blogs from you…oh and I sent an e-mail to Daryl, and he answered back!!!
