  • Good luck! I hope it works out for you bro!

  • ..Im having a back surgery after one week, but i dont have that kind of a problme in back.. anyway,, wish me luck people!

  • I tried chiropracty, massage, epidurals, exercise, etc. If you have low back pain, mid-back pain, or whatever it may be, there is a really great read called "Healing Back Pain" by Dr. John Sarno. It conveys the most Responsible Content on the matter that I have ever come across and is NOT "about" anatomy in general. You can google his name - don't have to buy the book. P.S. I've had 2 discectomies in the past - didn't know better, and.....yeah, it's a really worthwhile read.

  • Do what? I would think you would have some good doctors there in Honolulu that could help you.

  • Has anyone here been a patient of Dr. Filler? I am considering going to see him, but I live in Hawaii and I suffer from back pain as well as neurological problems. I have called his office but I can never speak to him.

    He seems to be a world-renown neurosurgeon, but I am wondering if I should go for treatment with him. I would sincerely appreciate any comments or advice you could give me concerning your experience as his patient. You may send me an email if you wish.  Thank you.
