Thankyou Reen and everyone! Things are getting better. My husband had a microdiskectomy/laminectomy last Thursday and the neurosurgeon removed 3 disk fragments. My husband does have some pain in his left leg, the surgeon calls them phantom pains. I think what he means by that is that nerve had been compressed for so long that the nerve is regenerating itself. Also the surgeon manipulates those 2 nerves during surgery which could cause inflammation in his leg. He is definately feeling better. We did not attend the fire works last night, because he wasn't feeling up to it, so he is just resting and recovering. What a scary experience.
Tribal! I am so sorry you lost your sister or brother. When did that happen? My sympathies are with you. Hugs to you!
