Default How long Will It Take?

It had been 6 weeks since my L5/S1 decompression and fusion and I am still in as much pain as the first weeks post op., it this normal?

I have tried to wean myself off the hydrocodone, but I get in so much pain that I want to walk the floor and cry.

If you have gone through anything like this please share with me as I am beginning to worry that I may not get better.

I have had several serious surgeries before but this one is the worse of all.

Please reply.
