Re: Going under the knife, boys
Luck to you with the operation and may you have pretty nurses.
A friend of mine had to have two vertebrae fused and when his back pains returned he began swimming laps and pain went away. He kept up the swimming and looked younger than others his age.

Re: Going under the knife, boys
Prayers up for you. I'm shortly there behind you. My back flared up again, to the point I've been flat on it on ice since Friday. Went into the doctor Monday; he ordered up a MRI. Still waiting for Workers Comp to approve it. After that, perhaps a spinal injection, or the same surgery. Good luck to you!

Prayers up. Lot's of us have gone thru this procedure, and we are still more or less upright. Hang in there and keep us posted.

Re: Going under the knife, boys
Thanks again fellas.
Kid, I had to have the injections and they had to give no relief before I was cleared for the surgery.
Tycer, timely warning, I had real problems with that when I had the double fusion a few years ago.

Prayers sent. Take docusate and senna, such as in Senokot-S. Constipation from opioid pain relievers is apparently not fun.

It is good you are getting this taken care of Bill. We've got some shootin' to do that will go much better with a functional back! Give a holler when you are ready to get back amongst 'em.
