Sassy, welcome to the forum.
Sorry about your emergency surgery, plus redo. I hope to hear great news.
How do your symptoms compare now versus pre-op... also please describe the symptoms between the first discectomy and the reoperation. Your experiences will help others in the same situation.
I would think that once you are a couple of weeks past the trauma of 2 surgeries, you'll be in the same boat as an ordinary post-discectomy patient. Hopefully you are already seeing that symptoms are addressed. It's not as easy as we'd like to think after a discectomy. Some people bounce right back in a few days and others will move slowly for some weeks.
I look forward to reading about your success. All the best,
Mark
PS... would you mind changing the subject or adding the words... emergency discectomy and reoperation at 1 week. That will help people looking for relevant surgery blogs to find this unique situation. Thanks.
