Hi Aussie ~ Believe me, if you reherniated, you would KNOW. That pain is DEBILITATING. It's the kind of pain that almost brings you to your knees!!
Don't you remember herniating the first time? Boy I do!! I was in the basement, doing laundry, and I bent to pick up an EMPTY laundry basket, and BANG - I herniated a disc -- and there I was alone in the house, in the basement.

I was trying to figure out how I was going to get upstairs! LOL Actually it was kind of funny, but the pain wasn't. I got upstairs on my fanny, writhing in pain the whole time. The stupid dog wouldn't leave me alone, & kept licking my face -- he was as big as a barn and he kept knocking me over!
Anyway -- just know that you will definitely realize when/IF you reherniate. I hope you never do. God bless. Hugs, Lee
