Craig and Charles... sorry you find yourself here.

the hemilaminectomy is kind of a maximum decompression, so if ongoing compression was the source of the symptoms, I hope that you'll experience some relief as everything cools down.

It is amazing that nerve symptoms can continue to improve for 18 months - 2 years and even more. I would bet that it's possible to get relief as time wears on, or that some or all of this is already permanent. Be smart about your recovery and give yourself the best chance to fuse and have a maximum recovery. This will be especially difficult when you start to feel better.

Good luck... please keep us posted,

Mark
