Laminectomy/Leg pain & Leg Wasting
 

6 weeks post Laminectomy and follow up nerve block and pretty much constant shin and thigh pain. I look at my thigh in the mirror and it is wasting down smaller and smaller. Won't be long at this rate and it will be bone. My left leg is 2 inches smaller than my right. I'm walking fine at normal pace but my gate is awkward if i try to walk quickly. Will be interesting to see if my leg keeps deteriorating with 3 weeks until next MRI and appointment with surgeon.

Phil, I hope that your surgeon comes up with some good ideas.

In the meantime, have a good Christmas - cold beer is always good in moderation ;) and being with family is always good :).

Thank you kiwi33. Have a great Christmas also

Dear Phil,
I hope you're not anywhere near Lorne on your holiday down in Victoria. Such shocking news this morning with the fires there. Please drop in if you can and let us know that you're all safe and well.
