I found out today that I have to have some testing done, but its looking like surgery is going to be happening. I don't want it, but I'm past the point of being able to live like this anymore and if I wait much longer I won't be able to go back to school and That would make me SERIOUSLY loose it.

she said to wait the six months that the surgeon originally said, but the surgeon isn't saying that anymore. And I can't wait 6 months cause that would put in at the start of my semester to be finally figuring things out and I need this to be figured out and fixed before I go back to school, otherwise I won't be able to go back. So I'm pretty much between a rock and a hard place at the moment.

well I"m hoping that if I get a fusion done I'll be able to go back to school in August cause I'm hoping that I can get it done in June just after my sister's wedding. and I figure I can do the PT and all that jazz at school just as easily as I can do it at home. I'm just gonna have to get all the info and move on from there I guess. I have to get the tests done on my back before I go and see the doctor again, so I'm hoping I can get that taken care of very quickly.

even if I don't have surgery I'll prolly be going part time in the fall. I'm just not back up to where I should be so that I could be successful going full time. I have the test scheduled for my back on May 19th and I'm still waiting to here about the psych evaluation that I have to get, but I'm thinking I will be able to see the surgeon before my sister's wedding, so hopefully I'll get the ball rolling on things pretty soon.
