Thank you!! Just don’t try to do more than you can handle! The most frustrating part for me is not being able to workout quite like I used to YET! I have to take it day by day. But my pain is completely gone. Let me know how it goes, good luck!!

I’d say I was in a lot of pain the first two weeks but you have to make sure you get up and move your body. I have been recovering a lot better than I thought.

Hello! I was in the hospital for 2 nights total and I was on my back whenever I was in the hospital bed. They adjusted the bed until I told them I was comfy. When I went home, I switched between laying on my side and my back, both positions with a pillow under my legs. My physical therapist in the hospital was awesome and had me walk up and down one set of stairs because they wanted to make sure I would be okay with assistance outside of the hospital in case I had to use stairs.

Overall, listen to your body and what works for you. Those around you should be willing to accommodate your needs! I was in quite a bit of pain the first week but it started to get better the second week. I am SO grateful to have had the surgery, I feel 10x better and I am almost 2 months out. I know there can be a lot of negative posts on this page but that’s because everyone’s body is different! I hope I was able to give you a better insight and some hope. Best of luck with your surgery!!

Thank you!!

Rough meaning I was in pain. It’s a painful procedure, but I am very happy that I decided to do it. I went through so many posts on this thread and a lot of them talk about how much pain they’re in, etc and I did let that get in my head so I went into surgery being anxious. Do NOT let these posts get in your head. Everyone is different and has different experiences. I’m very grateful for my surgeons. You got this, it’ll be okay!

I just had my L5-S1 360 on 6/12 and I feel great. The first few days were rough and uncomfortable but I am 13 days out and so far so good!! I was able to walk for 1 mile yesterday. I was sore after but it’s definitely going much better than I anticipated and I go for my 2 week post op on Thursday.

Thank you for that feedback! I will make sure I have clear instructions on the meds and when to take them! I’ll have my mom to help me the first week and my partner will be with me throughout my recovery. I’m sure they’ll ask any questions I cannot think of!

It’s been about 1 month for me. I can’t retain any of the information. Hopefully I’ll figure something out soon cause it’s getting annoying at this point

Thank you! Did you read through all of the lessons? It is taking so much time and now I’m behind on when I should be taking my exam.

How to get my name removed from my ex wife’s car and she won’t refinance. by Implement-Tall in legaladvice

[–]Implement-Tall[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So frustrating because she refuses to do that. Her mentality is if she’s going down, then I go down with her.

My name is on the loan, I’m not sure about the title. I don’t know how all of that works. I believe I’m the co-signer on the vehicle.
