i feel your pain. i have a somewhat unusual story about my back. i injured my back in 1985, over the years i seen many back specialist and they all said you are injured for life and will have to learn to live with it. i have done that for 25 years. 2 weeks ago i bent down to put on my sock and i had a very loud and grinding pop in my back, it put me down for hours without being able to move. all i could think of was wow you have really done it now. after a few hours i was able to get up and what do you know my back pain was 100% gone, a little sore but gone. i can do anything that i want without any pain at all!! something popped back in place that was out of place for about 25 years, and no doctor could figure it out!!! miracles do happen...

so the moral to the story is if your back hurts just put your socks on...

Default I survived !

Well I am now back home from my back surgery today.......no longer a multi night hospital stay for micro surgery. All went well, according to my doc.
The site is very sore, not a surprise. With good meds and a week or so of taking it easy, all should be fine.

Thanks again for all your thoughts

I feel your pain, Had total hip replacement surgery Tuesday morning and am sitting in the hospital right now. Doc told me yesterday that it would probably be 6 weeks before I could sit in the Vette again. Hope everything goes well and you recover fast.

I feel your pain. A year ago I had a TKO - Total Knee Replacement - and was out of the vette for a few months. Unfortunately, because of complications I now have to have the whole thing redone.

Do your rehab and get well. Good Luck!
