neurosurgeon

I am being referred to a neurosurgeon with a bulging disc in my neck...they are thinking steroids or possibly surgery...either way I got to get this fixed...playing the guitar is killing me...my whole left arm is numb and painful and tingly and just out there.....i have to take long breaks and only play for a little while before i have to put it down...i would kill to be 18 again...lol
