Good people are caught in the middle, like always, and can’t get the pain medication that they need.

    I’m hoping everything goes alright and the doctor fixes me. I don’t have a ton of faith in doctors, but what else can I do? So if you don’t see me around here for a few days you know why. Keep the faith. Bob

    rlmccarty2000- Thanks for the update, glad you`re experiencing some improvement.

    That doesn`t sound like all that long in the back brace, nothing like the 6 months my wife was in hers, glad you`ll be out of it in a few weeks.

    I was surprised too. With my first L4-L5 fusion I was in a big brace and I could barely move (I think it was for 3 months). This time on the L5-S1 fusion the brace is just a Velcro type thing that just wraps around me. They removed bone from my hip and put it onto the cage they built to get bone to grow onto it. Back surgery techniques get better every year, but any time you are working around the spine there is the possibility something could go wrong. The doctor said this surgery has a 90% success rate. This is the same surgery Tiger Woods had and he is back playing golf, I just want to get back to detailing cars, lol.

    Glad you’re doing well! 3 months is child’s play! My first surgery I was in a plastic brace for a year! It’s amazing how far they’ve come! Wishing you all the best!
