I am so thankful to Dr Hashaguchi and his nurse

November 13 2017 I had a loss of use of my left arm. No, it wasn't a stroke. Rather it was my osteo-arthritis of my vertebrae ( in my neck) that was impinging on the cervical nerves leading down to my left arm. I couldn't even pick up a small spice bottle. I finally realized it wasn't getting better November 15, Wednesday. So I called the office. I saw Dr Hashaguchi that afternoon at 4:30pm, the day before Thanksgiving. Saturday I had an MRI. He was able to work miracles and i got in to a Orthopedic Spine specialist Tuesday afternoon. Surgery was the next day. What i have learned is the faster the surgery to relieve the pressure on the nerve, the more optimistic the recovery. I am so thankful to Dr Hashaguchi and his nurse, Monica for seeing me so quickly and pulling strings to see the surgeon quickly. My longterm recovery is owed greatly to them. Cannot imagine the shape i would be in if they hadn't been there......
