God
Just got out of the hospital today after having a laminectamy on my lower back. I'm going to be laid up for a couple weeks so I'll be frequenting the board a little more. Damn I hurt right now
 
dam spare. hope they got you doped up pretty good. I know those back injuries can be the most painful dam thing ever. hope once you heal it'll be good as new.
 
My son had one of those to correct an injury from an accident. I saw the pain he was in so I can guess how you're feeling right now. Hang in there Spare. He got better and so will you.
 
Dang Spare, hope you're feeling better soon. Dang back will definitely take you down. At least the fish ain't biten and its too wet and cold to do anything outside.
 
Got the stitches out today, that was fun, I'm moving but slowly, I'm off the heavy pain meds, its hard for me to understand how some one that isn't having pain gets hooked on that crap, it made me feel like crap, I couldn't think clear, had stomach issues, hot/cold flashes, and it kicked my reflux back up after not having a problem with it for 10 years. I really don't want to have to take that stuff again. Just the frustration of not being able to understand and comprehend simple functions. I had hoped to be back at work by now, but that ain't happening. I just hope I can get back working before I get hooked on day time TV, I'm already addicted to my afternoon nap:sleep:

I do need to stay away from amazon, craigslist, and the facebook for sale groups, I'm finding way too many good deals
 
Man, what difference last night, I think its been 4 years since I've slept thru the night without my back hurting me. I feel 100% better this morning. New pain meds are helping without making me groggy.They cautioned me not to feel too good and tear something. One more day at the house, going to do some light work tomorrow
 
I'm glad to hear that you really turned a corner Spare, but don't over do it. just go slow and think about what your doing before you do it ! Be well .

I know what you mean about the pain meds. Unfortunately I'm stuck. They don't know what is wrong with mine(other than my hip is throwing everything off), so my only option is pain meds. For awhile they gave me some life back, now that things have gotten worse, they've taken what little I had left. Had me on one that worked, but the war on opiates took that one off the market, so now I'm a friggen zombie.
