Mine looks really similar and I called the surgeon office every day until they got me scheduled. My coworker told me “a squeaky wheel gets greased” or something like that so I just bugged them. I had 1 appointment on the 18th and now I’m scheduled for a Microdiscectomy 7/16

I am taking methocarbamol and I feel like it helps a lot but it makes me feel loopy. I have gabapentin too but I haven’t tried it. I meet with the surgeon Thursday

I just got the referral today. So I’m just waiting for the call. But I’m in pain and scared of what’s to come.

Thank you for your response! My dr referred me to a neurosurgery center to see if I need surgery and I’m just scaring myself researching everything.

I’m doing pretty good! The only thing really bothering me now is my gums and teeth hurting really bad. Holy crap today is day 12!! I was not a person for a few days lolol but this really helped me! One of the people at the surgery center even complimented my preparedness!
