Before surgery, I couldn't lift my foot off of the bed, Yesterday I could lift it 18inches off the bed. Had surgery Thursday and yesterday they removed the IV, Cath, pain pump and blood pressure cuff, This morning they are removing the 2 drain tubes. My shoulders are really hurting me. During surgery, they had me on my belly with my arms extended straight above my head for 8 hours. I have 28 screws and 2 rods that go from my tailbone to the base of my neck. I guess I get to go home Monday. Have a ways to go, but plan on thinning out the coyotes .

You just have to trust them to do their best for you. Mine changed my life. Can do most things , and no pain. Just be patient, don't over do it and do all your strength exercises. Glad to hear you are doing well. You will soon , be checking out some new set locations. Good Luck. old243

I could feel the heat and the smoke and dust engulfed us and I remember thinking, “That was close.” Then we hit the hole created by the IED. It herniated 3 disks which I lived with for 7 or so years. I had a surgery about 2013 or so and it was the best thing I ever did. You’ll likely always have some pain but not like before the surgery. Expectation management is important.
