2Months Post-op L5/S1 Fusion Nerve Issues

[cls]

In just the last two weeks I have noticed some very nice improvements in my nerve pain and leg weakness. My right leg has significantly improved and I am now cane free! My activity level has increased dramatically but along with this I still get episodes of numbness and and nerve pain. The nerve pain and numbness comes on at the end of the day or an hour after a long walk or after sitting or standing for too long. The first few hours of each day are generally pain free and without nerve flare ups. I'm hoping that as I progress through the healing process, I will have fewer episodes of nerve issues.

CLS,

You have every reason to believe your nerve pain will just get better and better. What did your doctor say?

BTW, B vitamins, esp B12 are beneficial with nerve issues.

My fingers are crossed, Dale

It seems we are going through the same nerve issues! I started a new thread about this issue before I read this. I hope everything is steadily getting better for you.
