Guest guest Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Hi group, I'm a new member. I joined a couple of weeks ago because my guy was recently diagnosed with C6-7 herniated disk with radiculopathy (left arm/hand). Surgery was mentioned as a possibility. I knew I'd learn from you guys, and I sure have. I am so impressed at the dialog between Shayna and Barbara, and how you guys have taken charge of your health issues and are educating yourselves in order to get the best possible care. I'm sorry that you had to go through the 'This patient is a flake " crap from your various health care providers, Barbara. I am a nurse and a patient advocate. If you guys have any sort of questions about A & P or medical jargon you need help with, please ask. Mostly though, I'm here to learn from the best teachers of all.... patients. Thanks for teaching me. Blessings, Sue ^'^ ^'^ ^'^ ^'^ ^'^ ^'^ " She was not quite what you would call refined. She was not quite what you would call unrefined.
