First of all, let me say "Thank You" to everyone who offered vibes and good wishes.
Let me say, that the field of medicine has progressed a great deal in the last thirty years. The myelogram was uncomfortable at times, but it wasn't the agonizing experience that I had before. And the fact that the doctor was a cutie didn't hurt. I have to spend most of the next 24 hours on my back, with only a few minutes sitting or standing. I won't know anything about the results of the test for, at least, a couple of weeks.
