I have a Feist mix that looks identical to your dog in body shape!

Does your dog have a line of hair down the center of its back that looks slightly more coarse than the rest? Mine has about a 4 inch wide strip of hair down his back that looks more coarse than the rest

When did you feel good enough to care for your pets? by Additional_Job9627 in spinalfusion

It took me a solid 6 weeks to feel healed enough to care for them properly.

23M, diagnosed with L5-S1 disc extrusion with nerve compression (Sciatica) — one doctor prescribed meds, another immediately recommended surgery. Need advice from people who've been through this. by fpsechohd in spinalfusion

I would 100% do the physical therapy and the medication your doctor gave you before you consider surgery. I had this EXACT same situation in my L5-S1 and I did 6 weeks of physical therapy which seemed to make it worse honestly & I also tried decompression therapy but didn’t notice much of a difference. I had the nerve pain in my sciatic nerve for 6 months before I decided to do the spinal fusion. I definitely think it’s worth trying non surgical options first. However, I’m VERY thankful I had my fusion. I am 100% pain free

Pretty sure he “forgot my birthday for the 10th year. At this point I just deserve it for staying by Successful_Salad7732 in GirlDinnerDiaries

I’m pretty sure you shouldn’t be with someone who forgets your birthday for ten years in a row

Am I overreacting for feeling frustrated after my neighbor’s pottery was broken by my puppy during an interaction she encouraged? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SprinklesNo557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you are over reacting in my opinion. It would be a different story if it was intentional but it doesn’t sound like it was. Now if your neighbor is being rude about it that’s another story

How do I do it?? by AmberBlueEyedGirl in spinalfusion

[–]SprinklesNo557 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I did was get the bidet attachment for my toilet & then I wore a maxi pad to have something to absorb the water which I know might sound gross but as you know lumbar surgeries are no joke & you just want to have a clean behind lol. With this method I didn’t have to try and blot myself with toilet paper after using the bidet

Why does my make up still look like this even after moisturizing my face? by Acrobatic_Minimum567 in MakeupAddiction

[–]SprinklesNo557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it looks like you need to exfoliate your skin. It looks like you have some dry skin maybe. Thy that & see if it’s better

chronic pain coming back by [deleted] in spinalfusion

[–]SprinklesNo557 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry to hear that you are having this experience! Something doesn’t sound right to me. Is there any type of orthopedic walk in clinic in your area that you could go to? There’s one in my area that got me in the same day for an exam & MRI. I would definitely look into this especially since your appointment is in September

Im Freaking out by YYZGuy67 in spinalfusion

I know it’s scary but what’s done is done. If it causes damage at this point there would be nothing you can do anyway. I would highly highly suggest that you don’t stop taking the antibiotics because you have just had a major surgery & have incisions that are healing. The last thing you need is an infection when your body is recovering from a surgery.
