    Don't play around with this! Nerve damage could result! If you have back issues have it evaluated and repaired. Thanks for your continued support,

    Well, I was able to shower and dress with no problems and walking with out the cane (keep it with me as a safety). Wife said I have been walking well. The help from the good Lord and you all have moved my success!

    Lucky not to go under the knife, I was not that lucky. I did not have enough disk material to make successful long term result. As I posted earlier, the doctor wondered how I was able to walk or even stand. Still will no forget what my doctor said when looking at the MRI, "you a pretty tuff guy" LOL!!! Thank you all, your prayers are making a difference!!

    Thanks! Set up today for finishing physical therapy for 2 weeks then see how I feel. My back has been doing well, I just got to get my activity up to were it was. It's amazing how when your not active then how difficult it is to get back with it, of course it would be easier if was 20 years younger, LOL!

    Been there done that with the disc surgery. It took a while before I was willing to admit that it helped, but no significant back pain now unless I overdo it. Don't be too quick resuming your normal activities and work up to "normal" slowly. You don't want to start all over again. I'm glad that you are on the road to recovery.

    Thanks! I plan to go back to work next month. I talked to my boss he us cool with me staying away from any activity that would trigger a problem. I'm very careful anyway after the first surgery back in 1987.

    Party is over! Back to work Monday! I did get a taste of what retirement will be, need to stay busy! Thanks for the support! My play time now will be getting my 455 the way I want it and work on the guy at the body shop.
