That's not good Dave.

I hope whatever they decide will be the best to get you back in the game.

Good luck Dave, I'm still recovering. It's a long road. But better to get it taken care of sooner than later.

chris L · 02-22-2007, 08:22 AM

that sux dave . hope it works out well .

Slick Moedee · 02-22-2007, 08:34 AM

Wifes cousin was worked on recently, her quality of life jumped a ten fold once she healed up. She can move around like she hasn't in years. Keep your eye on the target. Good luck.

HighTide · 02-22-2007, 10:56 AM

Have you considered getting the shots? I had 2 herniated disks (L4/L5, L5/S1) and tried this before sugery and it worked out well me and that was about six years ago.

Back pain blows, I hope you feel better.

afterhours · 03-28-2007, 08:21 AM

best wishes dave, good luck!

UserRemoved1 · 03-28-2007, 09:13 AM

yea Dave the waiting sucks. Relax as much as you can, try not to think about it. And hope you got a pretty nurse so you got something to look at before they put you out

I was really nervous before my surgery too. I don't like hospitals, docs, etc. Just go with the flow and let them do their things and you'll be fine.

Think stripers

I'll start tidying up the guest room then... what would I get for harboring a fugitive

Rick Ackley · 03-28-2007, 09:27 AM

I feel for ya Dave. Got about the same issues here, but shots have helped me get thru the tough times. Only time the back feels good is aboard the boat, go figure. Best of luck, get back into the game when the Doc says you can.

Nah, not fun at all. I have L5-S1 bulge that is pinching my sciatic nerve. Been dealing with it for 3.5 years now, getting harder and harder to get out of bed every morning, hurts to walk, like a knife is in me 24/7. Sux..
