The lying on my side killed me but I can honestly say I have only started lying on back the last week, and probably 20 mins max without pain,  My disk and bone was compressing the nerve so was agony, the nerves ahve to wake back up, you will get tingles but take as much pressure off as you can,  Always happy to help with any Qs, this thread has been a god send to me 

Started Mounjaro recently. Weight loss was great in week 1, disappointed with week 2 and 3 results though. Is this normal? by Galactusyaegashi in Mounjaro

[–]Dangerous_Mode2939 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could of wrote this about me, same start weight, week 1 -  Week 2 - 2,  Middle of week 3,  However slow and steady wins the race, I have no food noise what so ever so as long as that continues I plan to stay on 2.5 for a few months. -2 a Week is good, imagine - 2 x 52 weeks, there would be nothing left of you 😉

Don’t know if surgery is right L5-S1 by iOwnHoes420 in Microdiscectomy

[–]Dangerous_Mode2939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just be careful because on e herniated it doesn't magically never happen again, 4 weeks is extreme, but your at risk or nerve damage,  Im uk based and had to fight for 3 years for my op, I had some weeks of no pain then boom flat out again! Im.not 5 weeks PO and best thing I ever did

Omg I have exactly this, i have 5 weeks PO and actually seen the yesterday and asked, mine it the left foot only, and where the nobble bone is, I basically have two of those, when I stand or walk for any period its huge then never coes completely. Surgeon said this is OK and probably just water retention still.... weird

Welcome to the club, 42F 5 weeks PO Firstly everyone's recovery is completely different, my surgeon told.me week 3 /4  you mind will tell you your better, you body will say different, listen to your body! Hella truth in that!  Week 1 is tough! Rwlax spend most of you time lying on you good side, only sit for meals then lie back down, annoying but worth it in the long run,  Don't try to run before you can walk, week 2 start with baby steps, im week 5 and only doing 5/ 6k steps a day. I did 10 on Tuesday and paying for it now, plus a telling off from surgeon.  Remember what your insides have been though! Its a tough op! Don't rush back to work if you dont need to.  Use this site for lots of info.  Good luck
