Rob,  how long did it take your Nerve decompressions take to heal?  Not this
latest one, but the ones that were successful!   Thanks!    Sincerely, Linda

I have had nerve decompressions on my left leg. All of them so frar have
been successful. This last one, however, is still healing. I am going for
another EMG this Thursday to see why I am still in horific pain.

Hang in there. Maybe you'll know more and be able to make a bdecision after
you've talked with the orthopedic doctor.
