Hang in there. I was having fairly severe back pain - so I sought medical
help. Once they determined it wasn't my kidney causing the problem I was
X-Rayed and C.A.T. scanned. Then my croaker told me that since I'm 82 YO
I'n not a candidate for surgery - so they will give me a shot to deaden the
nerve pain followed by an "ablaition" which will kill the nerves causing
the discomfort.

I may decline the whole thing - because while I'm waiting to get the first
hypo scheduled that pain has abated - if not totally, then far into the
background.
