hailing frequencies closed, sir

Well, that was an ordeal. When Mercutio said, "A plague o' both your houses!" in Romeo and Juliet I'm sure he meant the procedure I had today.
I won't go into the gritty details except to give some keywords:

four needles, shock treatment, grounded, vertebrae, 
X-rays, IV drugs, local anesthetic, hot, cold, pain,
 extreme pain, tired, 13:00-16:30 is a long time

Yes, I was conscious the entire time. They needed me awake to ask me questions, how nice for them.

I'm not bitter. Really. They were very kind and helped me through it. And now that I have pain medication for my back, I am thinking nice thoughts about them.

Well, this is it for my treatment. I will remain on my medication until we know if this procedure worked. And finally, a big thank you to Christa who waited patiently for me at the Hospital and who put up with my meanness until such time as I received my "drugs."

Thanks for your prayers.
