Haven’t followed up in a while. I’m not sure where I left off. So...
I went back to my FD shift 3 months post surgery in May 2019.
I reherniated my disc in October 2019.
I had the same surgery done in December 2019.
During the surgery my S1 nerve root was severed and I had a cerebrospinal fluid leak that left me immobile. They patched me up. I was in the hospital for a minute and they went they went thru my abdomen and did a fusion on my spine.
Lots of recovery since then.
Wheelchair to learning to walk again with a walker to eventually doing it on my own.
(shout out to those several TBH members that helped tend to my house and yard during this time of need! 100% I’ll forever be in your debt.)
LOTS OF PHYSICAL TORTURE, I mean THERAPY.
Crazy how I went from not being able to sweep my house floors to doing squats on a Bosu Ball at therapy.
My doc released me to go to light duty at work 3 months after my 3rd surgery.
I have to wear the Mack daddy back brace but I’m doing it.
Anyways, it’s almost 5 months post surgery and the doc cleared me for a light jog. So we tried it at therapy yesterday.
So, I jogged this week for the first time since surgery while I was at PT! It wasn’t for long but we just wanted to make sure it didn’t create any symptoms!
And I’m happy to announce No PAIN!
No back pain. No leg pain. Almost good as gold again.
YAYYYYYYY!!
I followup with my neuro in 2 months to find out about when I can go back to shift. If you asked me if I was ready now, I’d honestly say no. I’m 2 years into my career and I have 18+ years to go. Don’t need to jack myself up again and ruin it all.
Thanks for all the support and love and I appreciate my TBH family.
