Back Surgery
Anyone had any experience with having multiple discs removed?

The reason I ask is tomorrow morning I'm going to have two more (had L5-S1 removed and fused already) removed. I'll end up with L3-L4-L5-S1 all fused together.
I haven't ran across anyone IRL who has had this done so I figured I'd of course come to the fountain of all knowledge and ask.
Just wondering how well it worked out, how much pain relief, effect on day to day life, etc.

Sounds like a pretty major procedure and fairly debilitating as far as range of motion. Good luck, Stumpy. I really hope you come out of the surgery well with a lot of pain relief.

Thanks, I appreciate it. Pain relief is the goal. This last year dealing with it with only ibuprofen has not been fun.

Is it scatica? Damaged vertebra?

I know the motivating factor is pain relief but Whats the underlying issue? PM me if you want it to remain private.

Discs are flattened and pressing up against the spinal cord. I have the sciatica along with the feeling of the vertebrae grinding against each other.

Damn man that sounds like a lot of pain that Tylenol wont fix. You never tried Oxy? Afraid of getting hooked?

Well that sucks. Sorry she has to deal with it.
I had one removed years ago while knowing this day was coming.

Well, I'll pray for some pain relief for you brother. Your results will probably be better.

My wife has a chronic pain condition. She has 2 fused in her back, she's had multiple rounds of injections, she's had the nerves burnt, nothing has worked.

This year she's had both carpal tunnels done and luckily those aren't hurting as much anymore.

I feel for her. Those injections are no fun. I had one done and was pain free for two days, then it gradually came back aver the next couple weeks.

It does. I feel for her. I wouldn't even go back for another injection. The ones they use to block the nerve feel like a piece of red hot rebar plugged into 110 volts being rammed inside of and down the length of your leg.

My cousin was in a pretty bad work accident. He ended up with 6 of them fused in the mid upper back area. Don't remember the designations but he has never been able to bend his upper back since. He can bend at the hips and that was it. He is in constant discomfort to this day. He had that surgery over a decade ago.

I'm close. After this is done I still need two more discs removed from my neck and the three vertebrae fused there. I'm about to lose count but I think that's 7 fused all together.
