For those who read our blog, I wanted to let you know to be praying for Kevin tomorrow--February 11th. He will be having a procedure called Transdiscal Bicupulasty.
He will have two different levels of disc (L2,L3) & (L4,L5). They will put in two prongs into each side of the discs and then they will use radio frequency to heat up the disc causing it to reform the disc repairing the tears and rips plus burning off the ends of the nerves there to rid of the pain. This is a fairly new procedure but there has been success with it. The only other option would be to fuse the disc together which is a very serious surgery and the very last thing they would want to do. So pray for him and the healing and that this would work for him. To be without pain would be a great thing. It has been two years now he has been dealing with this and meds do not help any more without making him like a zombie.
Thanks for your prayers.
