Became ucontrolable on Saturday moring after the surgeon said he feels the surgery would cause me more damage than good. I still have the neck intrusion from shrapnell and it is there for good. I was told to only move in delicate ways and speed so it won't move anyfurther.
I was ready for the surgery and signed all release forms changed into the gown and was told not going to have it. I got angry and whipped my head around so fast to the right in amazement and it popped directly above the c7 vertabra and I had my headache back and could not remeber my own wife I was so angry. I came home yesterday evening after cleaning stones on vets graves that gave there life for our freedom and put in many flags for them.
I was to go back to the hospital and instead came home showered and went to sleep.
I feel better now I went to the hospital today and got the ok after some test and I do have a chemical imbalance causing the anger and will get meds soon.
Take care
CREEDY DAV.

You know you are in our prayers! Try to get a second opinion, and maybe consider going to Mayo CLinic, or some other that specializes in spinal surgery.

God bless Brother! Paul
