View Full Version : Double Fusion in October
Went to Neuro today and officially scheduled my double spinal fusion in October. Looks like a long road to recovery. Good thing is I should have less pain and no restrictions after 3 months of rehab. Looking forward to leg work again finally.........well soon :D
Peace,

Damn, what you need that for? My wife is supposed to look into something similar herself.
2 disc degenerated to the point of no return with one already ruptured. This will be my second surgery. First one was a non invasive procedure that did not work. Now its time to rip me open !!! 3-4 hour surgery, 5 days in the hospital on a morphine pump, 6 weeks of nothing except rehab, 3 months of restrictions, then supposedly Ill be good to go. Guess we will see :confused:

I hope it works out for you. I am getting a MRI on my back friday I hope I just pulled a muscle. I can't believe how much having a hurt back effects your life I can barely move to go to work I can't even think about going to the gym right now. Good luck brother
