Well I have my surgery date of 6/3. I an of course nervous. He said he thinks the siatic pain will be better. He showed me the MRI on my Left side & the bone spur is impending on the nerve. I will have 6 weeks if BLT restriction. I hate that but am glad they can do something to help. Nickiean

 
@nickiejean...that date is coming up quickly.  how long will you be in there for?  I really hope it helps significantly and that the effects are lasting, even a reduction in sciatic pain will be liberating! /default_smile.png what is BLT restriction if I might ask?

 
I will be in 2 days if all goes well. No bending, lifting , or twisting. I agree if he can relieve that constant siatic pain it will be such a relief as no pain meds help that. I have a very generous pain doc & I get Percs 5 per day & oxcee 40 - 3/ day. I never take the oxcee unless my back really flares up. Even those really don't help that nerve pain. He feels he can relieve that pinched nerve. You could see how much it was pinched off on the MRI. He says it will be much better. I can't wait to have that gone.

 
Tomorrow's the day. I go in @ noon & my surgery is at. 3 PM. They took away my Celebrex 5 days ago. & now all my joints feel like I have the flu. You don't realize how it works till you're off for a few days .

 
I take some celebrex too and it does work well with inflamation and arthritis type stuff. Good luck on your surgery!

 
Best wishes NJ! Wishing you a successful procedure and speedy recovery!

 
Surgery went well. Doc said it was worse than he thought & that the bone spurs & arthritis had flattened the siatic nerve to the size of a ribbon. He had to start at the top. And work around until he could get enough of it around the nerve as not to sever or damage the nerve. He said the nerve would plump back up to normal. I already feel better. Of course that maybe do to the roxi 30. & Valium 10 he sent me home with. They gave my the big D after surgery. I had never had that before & it worked well. I am so glad to have it over with. & back home. I hope it takes care of the siatica. That is the worse kinda pain. Thanks for all the support guys it meant a lot .

Good to hear. Hopefully each day as you heal you will continue to notice the positive effects of the surgery!

 
Ugh! Nerve pain is the worst! I really wish you a successful recovery and pain free life. I am afraid this surgery may be in my future as well.

 
I have sciatic nerve problems as well, it is so painful. Mine is in the middle of my right buttock, it's because I have a pinched nerves in my back. I have been dealing with this since the early 2000. It's very painful, I feel your pain. Did the surgery help? I am terrified of surgery now since I had a bad surgery on my back and the doctor messed it up worse than it was. I have been to several specialists and they all tell me the same thing that it can't be fixed it can only be treated with med's. I hope your surgery gave you some relief. Please give us a update on how you are.

  18. D @ drdrizzy13: Yeah it was definitely a hold. Can't blame the refs for calling it. But I've seen many sketchy calls in the past to help the spread or over/under lol.
  19. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Wonder how much money was impacted by that last touchdown and holding call back. The refs were flirting with the over/under payoffs… that flag either cost a lot people some money or won them a bunch. But I guess you can’t say it was a bad call, just a very impactful one.
