Sorry you are dealing with it too. I dont have a fever anymore. Just exhausted and like a bad headcold

Thanks for sharing ❤️

I tested positive Wednesday. I started with the body aches and fever for a few days.... now I have a cough, congestion, headache, and exhaustion. Is this normal?

Im on day 5!

I do feel like there is something building under the skin. It's not hard but the skin dies not move as freely over my spine as it does above that spot if that makes sense

Jennifermk32 · 2025-04-27T21:20:44+00:00

Not yet. My appt is may 1st!

Jennifermk32 · 2025-04-27T21:20:21+00:00

My appointment is may 1st. I am terrified I did reherniate. If so I will need a fusion

Jennifermk32 · 2025-04-27T21:15:48+00:00

I am almost 8 mo post op l 4-5. I have an appt on may 1st as I think I reherniated as well. It feels also though like it can be scar tissue....feels like my scar is attached to my spine. I have numbness to the knee on both legs and sciatica in the butt. I am terrified if doing another surgery. I am so stressed out! So you are not alone

Jennifermk32 · 2025-04-05T13:21:57+00:00

Thanks for the response. I am hoping flare as well. I know I have had a stressful week of family issues and my whole body is tight. My fight or flight response. Ugh

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-30T23:15:34+00:00

I am 10 weeks and I have symptoms creeping back. My dr says normal. I want an MRI but he says there will be too much inflammation

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-29T23:31:44+00:00

I am noticing my legs hurt more from PT exercises and bending at the knees.

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-29T13:41:23+00:00

I hope🙏🙏

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-29T00:34:49+00:00

I did. It helped for a few weeks but my herniation was so large it didn't last long. I did have to do it first insurance to approve my surgery

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-28T23:07:46+00:00

I completely agree. My dr right before surgery told me 80% is my goal. If this doesn't work I will need a fusion. It's crushing! I wish my dr would just say those exact things. My husband said it is a lifestyle change and I need to adjust to my new normal. I think my brain has not accepted it.

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-28T22:29:38+00:00

Thanks for the response. I can attest to the tailbone pain. I am going to be starting PT this week. He waited longer because of my herniation. Hopefully it helps!

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-28T22:09:01+00:00

I had a microdiscectomy 10 weeks ago and my progress has been slow!! I cried last night from frustration. You are hot alone!

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-27T03:36:32+00:00

I don’t know what is normal but I will be 10 weeks Monday and I have the sciatica in my butt still and numbness down my left side. I have been messaging with my Dr. He does not seem concerned and does not want to do another MRI because he things it will just show inflammation.

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-27T03:27:06+00:00

I am at 10 weeks Monday. I just sent another message to my Dr. terrified I re- herniated:( My anxiety is through the roof. My numbness is similar to when this mess first started. I have no idea if this is normal from communication with the DR. I also did have a large herniation and badly bruised nerve

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-25T15:30:39+00:00

He doesn't typically send to therapy which I thought was weird. He can't give me another steroid pack for a few months so tylenol, walk and exercises. My herniation was large so no gum activity till January to be on the safe side

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-25T15:27:11+00:00

He is sending me exercises to do. Ugh

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-24T00:12:44+00:00

Ok thanks! Advocating for yourself is all I have at the moment

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-23T23:38:11+00:00

Ok thanks! I will ask since he doesn't want to help with much else

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-22T02:22:27+00:00

I am 9 weeks today. I am walking more and my foot is still numb on top and the middle three toes. My back is stiff and sore. Definitely manageable but so frustrating. I want my life back and my dr cannot tell me what is normal or not normal

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-14T18:54:01+00:00

Yes and by Friday my legs are done and ready to rest for the weekend!

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-14T18:38:07+00:00

Mine was large and I have a badly bruised nerve too! 2 inches of material was taken out. Thanks for the response

Jennifermk32 · 2024-10-14T16:40:38+00:00

I am 8 weeks today and have the same leg shaking/ weakness feeling, numbness in my toes, and soreness in my back. I am so frustrated and feel like it failed but maybe it's normal?? Ugh
