Re: second block questions

I'm seeing Dr. Conway in July and he sent me for nerve blocks before I see him. Since I did not react to good to them and I didn't have much relief he said not to bother going for a third...so I don't think there is really a definitive number necessary, I think each person is different

Study with Dr. Coleman

I've been treating with Dr. Coleman at HSS since the beginning of 2011 for my hips, labral tears in both. I had surgery with him in 2011 and I'm scheduled to have another one this Sep. Last week I got a call from his office that Dr. Coleman is conducting a study of the relationship of hip pain relat...

Re: best way to treat a migraine

I've had migraines for about 15 years now. I treated with doctors for the first 6 years and then had enough and just learned to deal with them. (I have what's called chronic migraines, it affects about 3% of the population so it's a little different than what people mean when they say migraine. My h...

Re: sue dr?

I work in the legal field and I deal with people making frivolous lawsuits all the time for slip and falls that was really only carelessness on their part, or a bar injury where they were hurt because they drank to much and even car accidents where the worst injury they sustained was back pain for a...

Re: Zithromax

I've been on the Z-pack for other infections and I like it the best, it's the fastest acting antibiotic that I know of, at least for me, and you don't have to be on it for 10 days like most meds.
Hope it will help you,

Re: Natural Birth after PN Surgery

I've been thinking of pregnancy in the next few months and all I keep hearing is DON'T DELIVER NATURALLY. I'm amazed you were able to do it and not have bad aftereffects. I've never had children so I don't know much about that area, but I've always wanted to deliver naturally, if possible. I was won...

Re: ToPT or not to PT

I treated for a total of 4 years with 4 diff PT including Beyond Basics who after a year of zero improvement told me its a waste of my time and money to drive so far (it was abt an hour and a half each way twice a week) when its not making one tiny bit of a difference. They actually referred me to a...

Re: How important is an EMG?

Violet, I guess I'm not really surprised that in France they don't leave the room while you undress, honestly I used to think what's the point of leaving or even covering up when you're just going to de-gown in a minute when the dr walks back in but I guess there is some level of dignity there and I...

After the second one I spoke to Dr. Conway and he told me not to bother havin...
