Hi, Dan, I will keep you in my prayers. Also, communication with medical
personnel is critical for a successful outcome.

Hey Dan, sorry to hear that you're experiencing that pain. I hope it
resolved soon. It may be worth contacting the medical practice to tell them
to improve their policies. At the least, their documents need to be made
available in an accessible format for your records.
