Yay for 100% Just awful migraines then??

Have had some nasty lower back stuff happen before, did you get the radicular pain down your leg?? Always good to remember that you will recover, and quickly if you stick with your rehab and keep moving!

Nah, this was totally novel for me.

I got it down both legs, straight to the heels.

The neurosurgeon said many of the same things. Assuming I don't become a couch potato she was super super optimistic. She really made a point to stress the fact that I'm not going to be a paraplegic.

Just fucking hurts.

Ouch! I've only had it down my left leg. Did the injury while cherry picking on an orchard, the next day I was wincing with every step. Oooo it was painful.

Keeping moving made a world of difference for me, frequent walks where possible then back into the gym to step it up when applicable.

I hope you get it right efficiently!

Thanks!

The plan is an MRI in the morning and then home discharge.
