Had surgery ten days ago. Can barely move & stuck in bed at the moment. I miss my ketamine drip.
I have a six month to two year wait to see if this will help, but surgeon was quite positive that he had found the trapped nerve & "dug it out", along with removing several ligaments. I now await my answer....

i have lived in and through some of those dark places
When pain seemed it would not relent Pooh has gone through ablation....and it has helped I pray the nerve you had dug out is THE one, Andy Hoping you find relief All of the surgeries I have known, in sum, have brought a better life It just isn't perfect, and I DO hurt, especially if I overdo.... Yet, I am the better for it. Sometimes med for breakthrough Rest more than I might like Exercise going well, because that is therapy......and I can work. I figure if Pooh, a hero to me, can brave the ER and OR duties....I can work too I am praying with this procedure you braved through, Andy, that some of your life comes running back to you! That IS the stuff of pushing through and beyond darkness Also with the help of my therapist....paying attention to the psyche Is Important Yup, M56 |

Hello Andy,
I hope that your surgical outcome is everything you are hoping for. It does take time, sometimes more than we wish to give. Just remember to keep battling the darkness in they days ahead be they 2 years or even more. I don't know what type of procedure you had done but I had a badly scarred down, entrapped peripheral nerve released and a stump neuroma removed about 16 months ago. I was in so much pain I could not see a future but I have come through and it is beautiful. My recovery has come in stages, some change and relief right away, then a gradual multi-tiered series of changes. I continue to improve. Your doctor was wise to give you a broad range. Just roll with what comes and keep doing everything they tell you. Gentle movement early on is great to prevent adhesion. We are all praying for the best for you and for peace and healing.

Hi Andy,
I do hope this is the first step on the long road to recovery for you, and 2 years is a long time. But there will be improvements throughout that time. Missing your Ketamine is natural, it is a great help. Work through it slowly with body and mind together. I trust you have the Medical Support Structure in place to ensure success? Wishing you low pain, Dave.

I am trying to keep some movement going & do the stretching excercises given by hospital daily. I have taken a very slow walk to my local shop this morning, & will try to get a pattern going with that. I do have to be careful not attempting to do too much too early, as I have a tendency to push myself, usually until I break, but I am trying to be more sensible this time round. Thanks for kind words & I wish you well with your own recovery. I nerve injuries are horrific & I would not wish one on anybody... Quote:
