Hi Frog,
I had to go back to work.... pretending to be 100% or lose my job.... 10 days post op. While my incisions healed well in 3 months. My battery settled in just fine...it has moved a bit sideways....
I did not really "heal" until six months post op when I could leave work and rest lots....lots. I found this board and learned BLaST and found out way more than my doctors ever told me.
Even tho I am healed...I still feel it in me and it hurts to have it jammed into my spine..... laminectomy or not makes all the difference in healing.
I am now almost 2 years post op and I want to know...when does it stop hurting by just being in me?

Really glad to meet you ....lots of new activity on the board...soothing to me that I have yall' to be with.

Johanna
