Title: Last chance for me before making a BIG decision on surgery
Post by: TMB on April 19, 2016, 05:35:24 PM

Going in for my last set of shots Wed ??? ???   If these work and I can make it till fall all will be good for me to have the surgery on my back if they don't work then I have to make a big decision on weather to deal with a h*ll of a lot of pain or do the surgery with in a month or so. :( :(

With the new BBQ shed about to start being built and a grandson on the way there are a lot of things I have to do first before having another surgery  :( :( :( :(

My surgery count and grill count is about equal

See y'all in a few days

Sounds like you need a microdiscectomy. I've had two of them.  It relieves a great deal of the pain.  Good luck with the shots.

I have had several back surgeries.  I'd rather get another grill.

Good luck Tommy.

I still remember when Tee went in for his "procedure". Steady slide from there

Speaking from experience here, I have had a spinal fusion in the past and although unpleasant at the time I'd sure do it again. It's a blessing to wake up without back pain or numbness.

Knee surgery not so lucky. If you ever need knee replacement surgery I highly recommend it. Just DONT fall on it and smash it afterwards!!!!!

Congrats on the upcoming new grandkid. You and Kimmie will be the perfect set of grandparents.

I hope the shots work and you can avoid surgery. Heal quickly and we will all pray for your health. We need you healthy and strong in the fall.
