Post Surgery

3-weeks plus days  post surgery on a Micro-D to the L4/5 and still some leg pain.  I am taking Nurotin 300MG for the pain and that help.  Any idea when should some expect to see better days ahead.

Best of luck on your surgery, let me know how well you do.  My PO surgery pain went away fast. Is just my let pain still full speed as before surgery..  Again, good luck...

I am having this same surgery on Wednesday and combing the internet trying to figure out what kind of relief can anticipate from the procedure.  In addition to terrible pain in my foot and leg (which seems to come and go, though it's present far more often than absent), I am becoming weaker in my foot and ankle every day.  It's starting to scare me, and I'm hoping that this condition disappears after the surgery.  Did you have this problem as well, and if so, did the surgery help it?  Thanks for any info.  I am really kind of scared by the surgery but nothing else has worked so far....

I have not had experience with this surgery, but I've heard from others that it can take a couple of months. Scarring, etc. usually takes six to eight weeks. I hope you feel better soon. Good luck.
