I was going to go to craig hospital in Colorodo for my syrinx surgery. I had an appointment with dr. Scott Falci and everything seemed wonderful . Somehow they decided they wouldn't take my United Healthcare insurance and they wanted 50,000 dollars to start out of my pocket, lol. I was so upset because my family thought that any old surgeon could work on a syrinx and that's far from the case. So I had to start pain meds and that has turned me into a less capable man. I often wonder what wouldof happened if I could of gotten my surgery. It was thought I would spend at least 17 days in the hospital. Ron
