Slow Walk,,,,,,,,
Slow walker, had an l4,l5 interspinious detraction, decompression, posterior fusion and clamp fixation. 2 weeks limited walking, 6-8 weeks physical therapy then bone grafts should be good then should be able to drive my vette anytime I want to.
do any of c5 owners here had to deal with this type surgery? Had surgery the 5th so just laying low last few days.
Thanks

I had back surgery in the 90's but technology has come a long way since then.
From what I hear it is a lot less invasive now days with better results.
I wish you well and hope you have a good care taker for a few days.

The C5 badge should add at least 10 HP to the walker.
