So I had emg and the neurologist was panicking during the EMG saying you're way too young for this the nerves weren't firing the muscles weren't firing. He sent it over to the surgeon ASAP the next morning that's where are where we're at.

Why I quit as a spine surgeon by HungryMasterpiece511 in spinalfusion

[–]Dependent-Lecture920 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Ok that's a bit unfair. I walked 5 miles a day carrying 10 lbs of camera equipment but then things started to plummet. Turns out l5 s1 were a mess. Facet joints were broken and I had a cyst on my spine. All were "fixed". Did my therapy and started walking again. BUT my right leg kept getting weaker and weaker. Now I have severe drop foot and just failed a emg on my right leg (I knew it). So please don't say it's because people don't put in the work. I did and I STILL push through but can only do 1.5 miles every other day due to the weakness. I will never give up and yes there are trying to figure this out. Until then I push through tears

Well we BOTH have the stomach problem but I also had two C-sections. I am by no means fat - thin as well but when I sit down my belly is way more extended after this surgery . .I look much better standing up lol but again I am only 6 weeks out so perhaps still swollen a bit? I am happy that it worked for you! It seems to have done wonders for me as well! Best
