Furnace unexpectedly took a dump, just had it replaced, waiting on bill....Fortunately it's been warm till now.
1. Put on high BP meds. Genetics at its finest. I don't drink/smoke, exercise religiously, etc. Can't beat Mother Nature.
2. Watched a 140 class 10 point buck in full rut, act like a fool this fall. He could have cared less that I was standing 20 yards from him, as he was following a scent trail of a doe about a hundred yards ahead of us. I whistled/waived my arms.... he just looked at me and went back to his duties...

It won't fix the problem, but have you tried Acupuncture to reduce the pain??

Not yet. I'm slated to go to a pain clinic very soon. I'll try that for a while...then if that doesn't work I'll consider alternatives.
The surgery is a 50/50 chance at resuming a normal life and greatly reduced or eliminated pain. You are right that it doesn't always work.
I'm at the point now of trying marijuana. It's legal in this state....but I am so much against the typical weed culture that it is difficult for me to try it. I'm a very conservative person and highly anti-weed. But....I'm also anti-pain.
