I had a follow up visit with the neurosurgeon who did the AVM surgery on my
spinal cord in March. This very delicate procedure was a big success, and he
was obviously very proud of the result, except that...... I don't feel any
better....... I can't tell that the surgery has made any difference in my
condition. There isn't much that can be done, he said... Should I continue
seeing a neurologist every 3 months when it's obvious that she pretty much
dismisses me, I asked? Probably not, he said. Physical therapy and exercising
is the best thing you can do, and then he added: That's why there is your
support group...
