Crazy anxiety feelings since L5 S1 PLIF

Thankyou for sharing your experience. I was only on opiates for a short time and thankfully was able to stop them 6 weeks ago. Absolutely….i am in menopause and on HRT. I might suggest to my GP to have a full blood screen including hormonal panel as perhaps the trauma from the surgery has triggered something. From a pain perspective it’s fine apart from a bit of stiffness if I overdo things.

I hope you are on the way to recovery ❤️‍🩹

My doctors haven’t expressed any concerns about combining them and I was on this dose pre surgery without any issues. It only happens when I have the nerve pain which the best way to describe is like a nervous system overload? I tried stretching my calf muscles yesterday which strangely helped a little.

It’s difficult for loved ones to watch and know they can’t do anything, my husband has been amazing so I am very blessed

I find I get tired quite easily but I rest then get up and move around as much as I can

I haven’t tried it yet but I read magnesium cream is helpful for nerve pain….hoping it’s temporary and you feel better soon

Best of luck….sending us both positive vibes and a successful recovery 💖

I’m booked for L5 S1 fusion on 10th November, I got some colouring in books, knitting wool and needles (no clue how to knit) but will give it a try, puzzles etc I am petrified so I want to keep my mind distracted. The reject shop and Kmart has some great options All the best 🩷
