Oh, dear.... Another option might be to get pressure point injections
beside the spine... I was caring a few years ago for someone that
already had been getting too many steroid injections in her knees, hips
and shoulders for the doc to want to give any into her spine, and was
not at all a good candidate for surgery.... She found relief from the
pressure point injections... the doctor she went to for that (here in
the Rochester area) was Cecilia Ransom... she was part of the Unity
Rehabilitation and Neurology group, and we saw her at the office at 2655
Ridgeway Ave, Suite 420... I don't know if she has any other locations
or not, but it might be worth checking out...  

In any case, I hope that Ron can find SOME relief....!
