Thanks
Thank you all for the support. In the morning when I wake up and am not in too much pain I wonder if I am crazy. Does anyone know how long it takes irritated nerves to heal. It has been 7 months since my foraminotomy hemi-laminectomy; Is that not long enough to wait? Those of you with sensitive nerves, Can this ever go away, it always seems worse as the day goes on and I bend. I am going to miss bending! I guess this why they call it mechanical pain because if every other way I am fine. I only hope that I am not jumping the gun. Anyone out thee with a double fusion please let me know how you are doing now. I would love to hear about your recovery.
Phylly
