Hi everyone,
Well its 1 week and 2 days till my surgery...fusing T5 S1
just hoping that I'm making the right decision.
Doc says hes suprised that I'm still walking, I have an extremely large disc herniation (16mm). I also have scoliosis, spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease and osteo arthiritis. My mom is 72 years old and thinks that my
Doc is just after the money, I think she is just affraid of the surgery. I was 35 years old before I knew that I had scoliosis, I am the baby of 5 children and was never told about the scoliosis. I always have had alot of back pain.
How do you make people understand how debilating this pain can be...I know that I am one tough cookie but I'm growing tired. The last week the pain has got worse and my legs have grown weaker, they shake after I walk for just a few minutes or after I shave my legs...any words of wisdom would be GREATLY appreciated!
