Hello all:
I am having posterior lurabar surgery on L5/S1 next week (10-19) and getting a little nervous as time nears. Dr. said recovery could be from 1-1 1/2 yrs and rough pain after surgery. I am a 53yr. old male that has had the epidurals and been on percocet 10/325 since injured at work on 7-27-10. Can anyone tell me what to expect as far as moderate/severe pain post op, time frame to return to a physically demanding job, medications post op. etc,etc? Any advice/personal history would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks
Russ
