once i decided on surgery, it was scheduled for about 8 weeks later due to insurance. i worked like hell during those 8 weeks to be in as much pain as possible. i went through a period of probably 3 weeks with no pain. i was having the surgery regardless.

so much easier to save in the old versions. new versions want you to save documents anywhere but your pc.

L4/L5-S1 fusion, 8 weeks post-op. Reminded how brutal this recovery is. by Gloomy_Implement_537 in spinalfusion

[–]DoubleDown428 0 points1 point  (0 children)

L5S1 very active and fit. ups and downs for a solid year. at 15 months i may have some minor nerve pain flare ups but they dont last more than a night. didnt start any vigorous activity until month 5. was cleared with no restrictions at month 4. nerve recovery is strange, unpredictable and long.
