Spinal Decompression

Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

Finally,

Yesterday morning the surgeon removed 3 bulging discs outa my neck.

Now my arms and legs are working better and improving all the time.

I'll be down for about 6 weeks and completely healed in about a year.

Time for a nap.

That's good news Sledge!

It's encourging to hear it's actually helped. Most of my spine feels like the disc is missing.

Try to give yourself time to rest & heal. I've forgottin what it's like to have days without arm & leg pain, numbness, etc.

God be with you Tom..................

Sledge, did they put you into a collar?

Be careful the next 8 weeks and dont jar your neck in any way.

I am glad you feel better.

I'm in a plastic collar that has pads. It covers my entire neck, chin, back of the head and stops just below both ears. A big pad sits on my chest.

Slept 14 hours.
