[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 605431, member: 1514"] One of the reasons in his decision is my weight. That and I have very long longevity in my family. No matter what the new products say they will last, my weight will most likely cut that in half and he doesnt want to put me through it twice. I know that the cortisone injections are only a stopgap thing and that they can actually do more harm even though they do help the pain for a little while. Also I smoke and that doesnt help the matter. If I can stop smoking and possibly lose even a little weight he may think more about it. I would be extremely miserable in a hospital or rehab if I couldnt smoke. The only reason I wasnt back when I had the meningitis was that I didnt remember I did smoke until I was almost ready to leave the rehab. Thats when everyone in my family told me how thrilled they were that it had been so long since I had a cigarette. If they had removed all evidence of me ever smoking I might not have started back...lol. [/QUOTE]
