Well my husband has had surgery a few months back, on his spine he had two disc's taken out of his neck and replace with artificial ones.... while going through the healing process and medical check ups they noticed something else in the tests... he has a piece of his skull that has broken off and is about a millimeter from the brain stem. Now the injuries were caused by being robbed and beaten with a tire iron (while active duty military) They never ran tests when that happened and just stitched his head up... but with his spine injury... he has tingling on the left side of his body... he has constant pain in his neck.... the doctors said he should recover from the injury after the surgery but it seems that he is in more pain now than before... they are talking about a med board, can you tell me what this will mean for our family?

Maybe you could post the questions here (see below)
