Well, I know that I may feel sore for a few days after the procedure, but
I'm hoping that it doesn't last too long.

I'm confused about the anesthetic part of the procedure. According to
the paper I have, it only mentions a local anesthetic, but lindy said she
didn't get anything and tonia said they knocked her out. Does this all
depend on the doctor doing the procedure?

tonia, what was your mobility like after the procedure? Were you able
to move around comfortably? Did you have any stiffness in your legs?
Like I said, I know I probably won't be 100% better, but I'd like to be
able to get around with a quad cane, instead of this bulky walker I'm
using at the moment.

Thanks, ladies!
