When you are able to look in the mirror, check for dried spooge.

Good luck. I wouldn't bother trying to sleep tonight though. It is what it is.

Good luck brother.  Don't let Shizzo find out which hospital as he may try to go undercover and take some liberties whilst you are under anesthesia.

Getting cut should be the very last option.

 Cancel the surgery and just do some deadlifts. if you're too lazy for that, then good luck with the surgery,man.

Good luck buddy, when you get back start a thread about your recovery

And of course you now have the 'Opiates and Benzo's' thread to refer to so you can make (ultra) informed choices when you work with your Pain Management Team..... (in fact you'll probably be able to teach them a thing or two LOL)

If it's full anaesthetic we'll see you after the dark side of the moon - all the best dude  8)

Good luck but by the way did you hear about Steve Kerr having back surgery. He had some side effects it still lasts about two years later and he said that if you're thinking about having back surgery don't do it don't let them cut you. I think his issue is his spine is leaking spinal fluid which is causing really bad headaches and other symptoms.

good luck, 8 years post op titanium replacement at three levels, get it done before you get nerve damage that you wont recover from.

Good looking out

Decompression. It is, I have tried everything. You name it, I probably tried it. I even tried ddp yoga, and quackery like magnetic therapy, acupuncture  and holistic shit.  It has been getting worst. I can't do any standing exercises and forget cardio. You know how hard and strict you have to diet without cardio not to be a fat ass?  ;D Hell, if I walk for 20 minutes my leg fells asleep.

Yeah, I'm worried about the nerve damage. I read stories on the internet were people don't get in fix in time and have to wear adult diapers. :-\

Yeah, they said to work with my primary doctor for pain management. Apparently it can hurt like a bitch for 6 weeks after because the nerve is over active. It sucks that I still have to work. >:(

Damn, dude  :-\

Seriously though, since I'm sure you will be out of commission for a bit after the procedure, you should make a thread updating your experiences/progress following the surgery. We may treat each other like shit here sometimes, but it's only with the best intentions at heart.

Good luck, and hope to hear that everything went as good as could be expected. Please keep us informed.

It's like that for most surgeries? Did they tell you the reasoning behind it?

They had a list of stuff, mostly meds, not to take. They prevent you cotting, cause you to bleed more, and/or effects the anesthesia. Waking up mid surgery isn't fun.

Coming out of surgery you will feel like hell. It will take a lot of rehab to come back.  Maybe make a thread about it. It could be encouraging for others going through it. Hope given time it's will turn out to be a success.  I would imagine it will take 6 months before you are back. Maybe more. Keep working at rehab and don't be discouraged at the lack of progress. It takes time.

Back surgery is no joke. We've had our differences and hate to see or hear just about anyone go through this kind of pain. Seriously wish you the best of recovery. Good luck.

maybe maybe not. I'm not even sure what's wrong w the posters back. Many patients feel immediate relief as they wake up in recovery and only have minor pain from surgery. Depending upon procedure his recovery may not be all that difficult.
