I'll have to print this out for my husband to read. He is very supportive of me and all the pain I have been in. Surprisingly, after my recent three level neck fusion, I don't feel the rib and stomach pain I have been feeling the past few months, but I'm glad it's gone, even if for a little while. But my guts still don't "work right", so I don't quite think it may have only been a neurological problem.
God bless you all. Thanks for sharing your story, and for having the courage to go to Germany and be a trailblazer for all who will follow. wr
