I hope you can get that fixed. I hope I don't jinx this but luckily, I've never had any broken bones or fractures. Sometimes I get paper cuts and bruises from bumping into something but that's really it. That looks bloody nasty!! I was going to complain about my lower back strain, bruised right knee and sore face (from tripping & falling the other day)......but after seeing that photo.....I actually feel pretty good now.

Becky was the first person in NC to get the disc surgery and she's doing GREAT!!! She was walking the next day which her rehab nurse couldn't believe!!! The only thing that scares me if the disc could come off track, and if it did would becky just mushroom like an accordian??? Kinda' gross, but it makes me wonder. You wouldn't believe her if you saw her either. Down 85 lbs as well!!! Still a warden though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a warden though If the disc were to come loose she would probably just experience a lot of pain, I don't think it would ever come so loose as to completely slip out of the disc space. I just graduated from x-ray school so I've seen quite a bit of people with screws and things in their backs, some loose, some not I'm glad she is doing well! They had me walking the same day of my surgery, to the bathroom and back was all though. They try to do that, it makes the back heal quicker in a way I guess. How are the rugrats?

nobodys hero Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Those of you who have had successful back surgery are lucky. I have 5 herniated discs and was a medical assistant for an orthopedic surgeon. There are many more unsuccessful surgeries than ones that turn out well which is why I will deal with my pain on a daily basis instead of having surgery. Kudos to all of us who deal with pain on a daily basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
