Got any words of wisdom on back surgeries?
Anyone?
Fusions?
Ending well?
Extreme pain after surgery for how long?

Better surgery options? Have exhausted all non surgical options already.

Nana will admit that is has pissed me off for yrs, if they can make clones, create hearts and other organs in the lab, why the hell they cant replace discs in the spine!

Was trying to wait to see what new technology but it is taking too long, probably not going to be able to wait.

I had back surgery the day the Twin Towers went down. L5 splintered and pierced my sciatic nerve. Surgery was the only option - UNFORTUNATELY. I have never been the same. Once they go in - that's it - you are done. I have controlled it for the most part by foot massage/back massage and my Chiropractor. After they open you up - in goes the arthritis. I feel for you - nothing worse than a bad back - affects everything you attempt to do, including walk.

What a great feed.
So sorry to hear your pain situation.
I was in a wheelchair or walker up until
November 8th of 2022.
A fusion was the answer.
Walking that same week.
No pain issues any longer.
However, it is imperative to
follow up with physical therapy.
The surgical hospital is rated number one
in the country.
Injections in to the spine since 2019 was effective back then….
Surgery solved the problem.
It is possible
Military grade Med Beds
will be rolling out this month.
Hope this gives you some insight.
God Bless you Nana.
