Hope everything looks good. Ask for pictures. Tell them you need to post them on a website so the rest of us can see 'em.

Thank you to EVERYONE! I'm half anxious to have the MRI but also have nervous that it shows I need to have surgery.... that's one thing we are PRAYING to avoid. With the "Big Man" is down it's not fun or pretty. When Allen hurts EVERYONE hurts

I go at 6:30 tonight and should be home no later than 9pm if all goes well. The MRI will be "Read" tomorrow afternoon and Friday morning I meet up with the Dr. again for review and ideas. Luckily he's also of the mind-set of "No surgery unless it's absolutely needed!"

I'll keep you all posted!!! THANK YOU EVERYONE!!
