In all likelihood, all the discomfort you're currently feeling will be gone when you wake up from surgery. Don't be afraid. Good luck.

I found out today they are doing my surgery as outpatient unless there are problems. This surprises me, if its outpatient why is it so serious I need to be out of work so long? Anyone else have back surgery (decompression surgery) as outpatient?

Did you try asking your doctor?

If you have any questions regarding your surgery, I would recommend talking to your doctor. I'm sure it depends on what exactly they're doing while they're in there, as I'm sure there are different forms of decompression surgery. What goes for one person may not go for you.

I'd bet your insurance has a lot to do with it.
It should'nt be a problem though. I mean jeez, you're just getting a part swapped out. It's not like you have to grow entirely new bones and pack around a bunch of titanium around like I did.
If they're cutting on you tommorow and sending you home all I can say is my dinner be ready come saturday night. You can take it easy a day or so but I ain't putting up with no lollygaggin around.

More than likely it comes down to simple math. When your patients found out you were going to be put in with them they told their Dr.'s they would rather go home than be stuck in a room with you. Sooo, they figured it would be easier to send you home instead of all the other patients. Simple math.

They are all private rooms so I find that highly unlikely.

update, I had my surgery, seems I had a bone spur shaped like a hour glass wrapped around my nerve. He took it off and took out part of the disc. My hip hurts and my back is still swollen, but still feels a lot better compared to what it was. Just can't wait to get back to work.

Great news. Now maybe you'll be a little more flexible.
