    Don't want to alarm you, but it could be spinal stenosis. I have it and am facing surgery. Please go to back doctor. Maybe get a diagnosis. Your symptoms are very similar to mine.

    I am now under Medicare and am eligible for an implant. However, Medicare does not pay it all. Does anyone know what is a good insurance supplement to get to cover the rest of the expense? Thanks for any replies.

    Personally, I think I would be happier not being HOH. I feel I miss so much. Would love being "normal!"
