Hi Sky,

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. Yeah, my PM doc and I talked about, but because I have nerve damage along with disc damage in my back, she feel that the electric pulses would probably trigger the problem with the nerve. When it acts up. I get a real sharp pain that extends out from my spine into my left scapula, and then shorty after my left arm goes completely numb from my shoulder to my fingertips.

I wish there was a no medication answer for this, and the only one is surgery. Until I can get a full-time job with benefits, it's just not an option right now. I'm a contract worker here. I've already talked to one of my supervisors here and they've told me that if I was to opt to have a surgery that would keep me out for a minimum of four weeks, they would have no choice but to replace me. I can't afford to lose my job.

Again, thanks for the idea. I appreciate you thinking about me.

Greg
