I didn't know where to post this but maybe his section will be fine.
I'll give ya some info about me and what's going on about the surgery, feel free to chime in and offer advice guys.
I'm 25yrs old. I have 3 herniated discs in my lower back. I did that when I was only 14 and I have no clue how I did it. Now I have major sciatic pain going down my right leg into my foot. I went to the speicialist 2 days ago and they scheduled surgery for this coming tuesday. I basically have a disc that is bulged out and is pinching my nerve completely against a bone in my spine and it's causing extreme pain thru my back all the way down my leg into my foot.
They have to put me under to do the surgery and this is what they have to do.
Cut thru the muscle in my lower back to get to my spine, then cut a chunk of bone out of my spine so they can get to the nerve. They will move the nerve out of the way and then grind down the disc that is pinching the nerve then stitch me up and I'll go home the same day.
I've never had a surgery before and I'm quite nervous about It since they have to put me under to do it.
I just got a baby Mack snow leopard gecko 2 days ago and I have to take care of her also. My girlfriend won't do anything with my Leo so I'm gonna have to do everythhing for her.
Feel free to offer any advice if you have any to give, thanks guys I needed to vent a little because I'm kinda scared..
