Thank you for the reponses to my initial post. I am still debating whether to have the trial or not. I called the office this morning to get a idea of how long it will take... I was told a total of 4 hr. from getting there to going home. Does that sound right?

Also in another post a lady mentioned " not sure if you all had to stay awake for the first two hours of the surgery but it was the most horrific pain I have had to suffer beside the accident itself and that darm discogram " Now i am fealful of more back pain. I hate pain....lol Sometimes it might be easier i think to just pop the meds.

Are there alot of regrets for the trial? Thank you for your responses.
