re leg pain
John,
Glad your pain was relieved w/removal. How's the back?
After my 2nd discectomy I ended up with not only greatly increased low back pain but even worse with glute pain bilat, leg pain bilat that was deep burning in nature and debilitating with movement, standing, sitting, anything really even lying down. It was in the front of my legs, back, laterally in calves.. everywhere. No real reason except scar tissue blamed at S1 nerve root.
After nearly 5 years much of this was relieved but enough remained to start Neurontin and fortunately this has blotted out the pain except for on occasion.
I can definately agree w/you re little or no leg pain is awesome and esp. compared to what I felt for so long. Glad you had a short lived time with nerve related leg pain.
