    since then I have so many problems with my legs. i am in constant
    pain, i can not stand up or walk for more than half an hour at a time.
    i went to see a diferent dr. wich told me i have some serious nerve
    damage. i don't know what to do from here. i would love to know more
    about what you guys are thinking on doing. i am considering have it
    removed, but i am afraid to cause more damage to my body. thank you
    for your attention. Brenda
