Oh, I feel your pain. I literally, for real, prayed for death the first two days after surgery. My pain was crazy out of control. I remember begging the post-op nurse to hold my hand, and she wouldn't! My hubby was only allowed in for like 30 minutes all day. I didn't get up until the second day and I could barely move. It hurt to readjust my body in a chair for a week and a half. Every movement hurt. So, I can not imagine having 2 levels and front and back incisions! That must be an extremely hard recovery. It will be worth it when you are pain free, at least that's what I keep telling myself
Will be praying for a speedy recovery,
Kathy
