probably irritation to the sciatic nerve while they were in there, if you had impingement as well its going to take time for it to subside. The nerve hasto heal.
 
Hi.... I had that happen to me as well. I was re-admitted to hospital 2-3 weeks after my back fusion. I was diagnosed with S1radiculopathy. It is severe irritation to nerve and nerve roots due to the surgery. Very, very painful. I am on Lyrica, a high dose, and it does help the pain.....


LYNN
