Well, it's been one month since the surgery in Houston. Driving back 1000 miles was pure torture, even with narcotics. I would definitely recommend flying!!!!!

Re: flying for surgery
My mother just drove me 1000 miles to Houston for Dr. Ansel to doe surgery for PNE. Pure hell while only taking tramadol and neurontin. Will be in the hospital for 1-4 days, and in 1 week, back on the road. I'm terrified! Wish I had flown.

I find myself looking like I have Parkinson's(trying to shake off the pain.) It starts from the moment ...
