Thanks Mark anytime would be fine. I'm here. I saw my surgeon yesterday , he took and x-ray and no change since the surgery, which is good. Everything has stayed in its place. He does not want to do the posterior surgery and i don;t want to have it either. He just will do it if he absolutely has to.
I had some cracks from the anterior surgery and i think my whole lumbar spine scares him, I didn['t have my glasses with me at the appointment or i would be more scared as well.
Myorders are to take gabapentin for my horrendous nerve pain, medrol dose pak for inflammation , maybe even reduce the foot drop and to stay in bed. He doesn't even want me walking in the house much, only what i have to . All of that is such a challenge. I feel my muscles melting away.
