Default Recovering from TC surgery ith Dr. Feigenbaum in Aug 2013

I have been recovering from this surgery for 2 + years. Dr. Feigenbaum his staff have been exceptional. Unfortunately the nerve root most impacted by the surgery is inflammed (no guarentees) I realize it will be a long term recovery for me, but am in much better shape than before the surgery. The good news, is that Pain Mgmt techniques with a prescribed TENS unit and a compounded cream (that contains nerve pain killers, etc) are very effective. Because of the nerve damage caused by the cysts (3 of them) I am dealing with pain at the surgery site, and down my right let and into foot and toes. I feel blessed because I have a good med insurance and have found relief from the pain. I still must be very careful and not bend much or walk very far (1 mile max).
