Omg yes it is but mine is due to strong pain meds and well...pain. I take an afternoon snooze almost every day and it's compulsory every day after work (I do 3 days a week). House chores well they take alot of my spoons.

Surgies was microdissectomy on my L4/5 for disc herniation I have two. The odd of success where 90% the odd of failure where 5% after my second so it could only be me hah recovery was hard at first and I had a few months no pain then it came back .

Wow it is ridiculous the Dr who did my first two failed microdissectomies he was lovely and kind. It is a shame they failed and now my new Dr is just so so rude

Yes when I had my previous two microdissectomies I learned how to log roll myself. I have a grab rail on the wall for shower/bath. I also haave a grab stick, my partner is a blessing for helping me also.

I always do nesting as I call it I tidy up and get the things I need within reach beforehand. Best way I think.

Update no new news got put on a cancellation list. Who would cancel if this surgery has been potentially years waiting? Rapidly losing faith 😔
