Thanks kiwi33 I'm going home tomorrow. Surgeon said there was a large amount of disc crushing the nerve. He said he cleared it alot around the nerve. I'm walking with a legbrace and walking stick with no pain in my leg, groin or thigh. The only pain is where he operated. I'm Stoked. Very happy at this stage.

Wow, you sound as if you're doing really well.

Speedy recovery to you Phil.

take care of yourself.

Thanks Lara yes i can feel the difference already. Just have a fair bit of physio to build up my leg strength again after walking with a limp for so long. Thanks for asking.

Phil - Great to hear all went well. All the best for no complications with healing.

May be when you're up to it you could post a summary of your symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and results - it's encouraging when others can see the journey from pain to recovery.

Phil,
I don't know what time you're leaving or which direction you're travelling in, but just warning you that you should check the Bureau of Meterology radar site before you set off from hospital today. Slow moving storms from the west.

ummm, maybe not so slow. No warnings yet though I think they're asleep at the wheel as usual.

[edit - removed out of date link.
all clearing now]

Thanks Lara yes we've been talking about the storms coming. Pretty yuk outside at the moment. Thanks for the warning

Good evening Phil. :Wave-Hello:

You would be happy to be home again. I hope it wasn't too painful sitting in the car. You take care there.
