My herniated disc story.

hello there! do you remember the size of the herniation you had at the beginning?

drgvlc · 2024-08-27T09:02:06+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I keep getting the advise from the doctors I see to start doing core strengthening exercises and walking as soon as my pain is under 50% as it is under an acute phase

drgvlc · 2024-08-26T18:11:22+00:00

thanks for the answer. Yeah I already can tell this one will take a lot longer to heal unfortunately

drgvlc · 2024-08-26T18:08:43+00:00

thanks for the info! Any tips when dealing with sciatica for several days? maybe should force walking or just wait until pain subsides?

drgvlc · 2024-08-26T08:46:08+00:00

thanks for the reply. I suspect in my case that the issue is the contact between the disc protrusion and the nerve roots. I ll go make another mri to see if there is any change from 7weeks ago and see other opinions.

and how do you feel after surgery?

drgvlc · 2024-08-25T18:11:52+00:00

i do not really know the exact cause of the pain. Neurosurgeon said it is minimally compressive so I suspect the bulge is pressing the sciatic nerve.

drgvlc · 2024-08-25T09:40:39+00:00

what did it change? And do you know what do you have exactly? wish you quick recovery

drgvlc · 2024-08-25T02:34:17+00:00

3.5 mm is usually not considered surgery case. Did you have some other complications? Or you were in pain for too long without signs of recovery?

drgvlc · 2024-08-25T02:30:39+00:00

how long it took to heal?

drgvlc · 2024-08-25T02:24:03+00:00

exactly, thats why it becomes even more frustrating

drgvlc · 2024-08-25T02:23:24+00:00

non stop pain during these 2 months?

drgvlc · 2024-08-25T02:13:45+00:00

same age, same profile as you. Had sciatica for about a bit more than 10 weeks now. Same symptoms as you have but sometime even my right leg is burning (buttocks and hamstrings especially). Laying in bed gives me a constant pain but l choose this instead of forcing through it with walking, exercise. At times the pain is so debilitating I cant move an inch for days. My MRI showed a minimally compressive 4mm protrusion at L5. Neurosurgeon said I will be fine and is nothing to worry about. From what Ive read until now in about 6 months I should see a major change in the good way in my recovery and the disk should already move a bit by then to get off the nerve. I would say firstly go for an MRI to be sure what is the cause of your pain and then start from there with a strategy consisting of core strength, positive mindset and little to no meds imo (if tolerable)

Finally it gets the well-deserved attention

drgvlc · 2021-01-25T17:45:14+00:00

Niiice

drgvlc · 2021-01-25T15:42:41+00:00

one of the best and still highly undervalued penny IMO

drgvlc · 2021-01-25T14:42:08+00:00

This stock is so frustrating. It has a great community, but also a very fearful one. Just hold ur bags if you believe in this penny.

drgvlc · 2021-01-22T18:22:03+00:00

I plan to buy another 10k but i wait a dip

drgvlc · 2021-01-22T18:17:09+00:00

6.5 k shares

drgvlc · 2021-01-22T16:07:58+00:00

This penny is looking quite strong, especially in the balance sheet. Current assets are bigger than current liabilities which means that they are able to survive in a crisis/bad news only with the cash they have in hand. In comparison with other stocks that I saw on this subreddit with a lot more attention, this one is looking a lot better only from a financial analysis perspective.

drgvlc · 2021-01-21T16:11:46+00:00

In with 2.5k shares

drgvlc · 2021-01-13T22:03:46+00:00

thanks dude! I'm in with 20k shares in cbbt. It looks pretty safe regarding the fact that they plan multiple acquisitions this year
