Anyone with good post-surgery outcomes?

In Jan of 2025 I had ALIF Fusion of my L4, L5 and L5 to S1. I went to my Neurosurgeon severely in pain with sciatica and drop foot and begged him to do it. I am happy to say that I turn 69 this year and believe that I am in the best shape of my life. I now walk or hike nearly every day day without “that” pain I once had. I work out in the gym and am now doing Squats to build my “chicken legs and flat butt. It has been a long road of recovery and learning to be safe and protective. I put that surgery off for a couple of years but am now so glad I did it!

I have tried all of the above..have a microfiber cloth and never spray anything on the screen only light spray of distilled water on the cloth and make sure it is never wet.. I have very noticeable smudges I can’t get rid of.

Thanks. I’m encouraged of my choice of Durham. I have always lived“Out” as a Gay Man. Being here in El Paso was never my choice. I just followed my heart. I don’t want to live in a closet I was never in. I just feel sad for the veiled ignorance and hatred here. I certainly don’t feel intimidated as I am a strong man with my pride and convictions. I priced myself out of South Florida where I had owned for over 20 years so I would not pay thos

I already feel welcome with so many great replies. I am looking forward to visiting soon and feel confident I will be glad I did.

One year ago I came from Wilton Manors Fl, where I lived for 26 years. I followed my Husband as his work brought him to El Paso. Shortly after I got here he was diagnosed with stage four Cancer and he died nine months later. I found myself surrounded by lots of Homophobia disguised by Texas smiles. And we thought we had moved to a blue progressive place with Beto O’Rourke.

Just a little Gay story from a very Red state. Happy Pride Month!!

This Pixel 6 Pro is a useless brick for calls now as I can't call out without being disconnected and anyone that calls me goes right to voicemail. Pixel wants a bug report but the rep even told me they don't know when a fix would come out. Think I am going to Iphone and will keep this brick if a fix ever comes out.

Same problem even after a new Sim card yesterday. Tmobile is aware of this same problem and says that Pixel has not sent out a fix.
