I would say you're doing pretty good for such a short time post op. When I had regular lumbar surgery, I was a wreck for a month! Mine was not minimallly invasive tho - it was open surgery. So keep up the good work and like Dubious said, by a month or so, you should be feeling pretty darn good.

Best of luck and keep us posted. Hugs, Lee
