A prolonged amount of down time?
 

seems like: for such a less intrusive procedure...

i wonder how that compares with the other surgery. the biggun.

was looking at those cage deals they put in there :hs:

wow dude... i feel bad for ya...:(

iv'e been using the thermal-care heat wraps for a few weeks
just pulled muscles... it doesn''t compare.... of course.

I feel your pain LITERALLY !!!
Went through herniated disc several years ago. i ended up getting cut open to "trim" the disc. All went well though, recovery time was only a couple of weeks. Now I only have slight pain now and then and usually only when I have to sit too long.

But worth it, the pain was so bad, a bullet was nearly an option.

I wish you luck, they can do amazing things, you should be better. NO you will be better....
