    Sorry to hear Kenny, your such a great guy, I know you have plenty of ppl that would be willing to help you in any way possible. If I were in your area, believe me I'd be there all day to help you.

    back problems are the worst. I wish you a speedy recovery my friend. I bet you STILL win this thing!

    I also wish I was closer to take some fish off ur hands LOL. I know you got some quality over there. but hey man, even tho u have to get rid of some tanks, look at it as a new beginning. once your back up and running...you can have you DREAM tanks. you know how you been scopin strains out but you just dont have the room or the time to take them on?!?! well now you will. nothing but perfect fish that you have been wanting for a long time (thats how I would look at it! )

    sorry to hear again Kenny, I really hope you feel better soon. hope all is well bro. I bet youll be back up in no time after the surgery. my concern is with you bro. wishin u a speedy recovery!

    take care Ken. talk soon.

    Get well soon. I am sorry for your back problems. Do whatever the docs say so that you will have a speedy recovery. I would hate to hear you reinjured your back trying to do water changes

    Kenny:

    Hope everything works out. Not long ago I was rear ended by a "smart guy" who was texting while driving. I'm still going to the doctor and have my son do the water changes for me.....

    I really appreciate everyone's replies to my situation. I have seen 3 surgeons who all feel my back is too unstable with the amount of slippage, graded at a 4/5. My concerns, which are many but topping the list is the % of success they will have in fusing my spine. I know i can not keep on living with the condition i am in now. I have decided to take a gamble on a new developing technique which shows to be very promising. Laser percutaneous endoscopic discectomy. I am leaving tonight for Pittsburgh and should be on my way back home on Friday. The doctor feels he can relieve the points (nerve canals)that are pressing on the nerves and causing me such pain. This will be done in two sessions about 2 to 4 weeks apart. The main advantage with this procedure is no major incisions, so i should recover faster. This will not correct my spine but hopefully stop the pain. I will be able to look into other alternative ways to correct my problem once i can see straight. I will be in touch soon.

    good luck Kenny, sounds pretty promising to me. once the pain is relived you will just take it from there. thats the first thing to overcome. Im sure they gave you oxycontins, hydrocodones....I feel like these dont really do much for pain. hopefully this new procedure will handle it.

    good luck Ken, take care my friend.
