I had back sugery 8 weeks ago. They did the surgery from the front.
Removed 2 almost gone discs and use metal to pull back bone from touching bone on bone and implanted bone to fuse the bone in to place.
I have less pain now. I still have pain when getting up and down or bending. walking is good but I feel very tired after a few hours. Still can not lift over 5 pounds. How long before I will be fully healed? My left side is now pain free down the leg. My rtight side hurts still and my calf muscle has had a cramp since I had my surgery. I went to work after 3 weeks but can only stay 6 hours a day.
