Needless to say, I am very frightened - becasue there is also a 50% chance that the surgery will not help. The good thing is that chances are surgery won't make things worse.
I know I will be surrounded by the thoughts and prayers of my YT family this coming week. You will never know how much that means to me.  to all of you. |
hey that is a surgery i actually know a little about....i helped do a few of them with the podiatrist at the hospital i worked at....that surgery is awesome...not really alot of pain afterwards....some but not really bad...no where near the pain you have been having.....it is very similar to carpal tunnel surgery....works great if that is indeed the problem...i will keep you in my prayers
