It amazes me that you're going to be able to go back to work with all that! I'm such a wuss when it comes to pain. I still spend about 18-20 hours on my back in bed right now just cause it hurts more when I sit up. Do you remember where you were with that (how much you were up) at 3 weeks out? I worry that despite increasing my walking a few 100 feet each day that going back to work is going to be a shock since I can't lay down to let my spine decompress while there.
Gotta find something to worry about, now that I know the implant isn't going to pop out, right?
