My name's Eddie and I'm almost 26 and I've suffered from chronic lower back pain for almost 4 years now. I've been on so many different kinds of pain medications it's not funny. Pain is all I know anymore it seems , so I'm taking a drastic step and having a L4/L5/S1 spinal fusion . My surgery is scheduled for Monday at 730am. I'm really scared because I don't know what to expect, any and all advice is welcome, also prayers.
