It's pleasure to hear your successful bro. I also l5 s1 lumber problem.l5 s1 disc is collapsed and I must need a surgery from dr. Suggestions. But im having a little scare😁 Bro have they removed your titanium screw? Or forever ?
I just had mine done, my L5 collapsed on my S1 with no disc left. They leave the screws and rods in there for life. It was immediate relief of nerve pain and instability. It’s a serious surgery I’m 27 y/o and it was about 3-5 days of a lot of pain from surgery. I’m 2 weeks into recovery and have little to no pain anymore. If you do have this done make sure you have help you will need it for the first week or so. I hope you the best.
. Excellent! Nice to hear you are better after the surgery. Most just complain. Im facing 4-5 fusion and 3 lamonectomy to remove a cyst inside my canal then bridged from 345. This time I'm going to gave the surgery as I backed out many times before. Wishing you a complete recovery young man!
I to had L 4/5 S1 A T Lift inter-body fusion poetical screws together with rods. At 72 I didn’t want to have this operation as was in law enforcement when young had motor bike accident had leminectomy to free nerves Some 1 year ago had very bad fall movement on Esclator fell had on backside hitting my neck also. In the end I couldn’t walk what so ever. Found a young Indian Nurosugeon Dr Shiva at From Liverpool Hospital Sydney I prayed and prayed to Mother Mary Dr Shiva did an excellent operation now walking got fusion on 17th Oct 2024 excellent specialist glad I had it now God will I will continue to be alright
My back surgery was the biggest mistake of my life.. please think twice and do your homework.. you find out who your true friends family are...Thank God for my Dog...God bless.. Stitch
I just had my Tlif surgery July 13th. The procedure went well. After the surgery, my nerves felt like I was on fire. Nobody can touch my lower back, butt cheeks, and thighs. Omg the pain was really intense and unbearable. It hurt to lay in the bed and to have covers touch me. The only relief I had was to walk slowly in my Birthday suit lol. I am currently in pain management. It is really helping. My nerves are really mad and upset with me. I go to pt twice a week and will be getting in the pool as well
Thank You for the very well-explained video. What's your opinion about flying at what stage will it be okay to fly. Sometimes the landing could be harsh.
I have internal fixation spinal stenosis and broke my back February 2021 fusion from L-2 to S-1 and im still in pain every day and no sure how long I can take it tired of the pain
Me to every day when I try to push threw it the pain is worse I mean bad worse and now I have jaw and teeth clenching it’s pretty bad I don’t know what to do
I was recommended spinal fusion for L1-S5 due to bone on bone. The pain is bearable but getting worse, so I was advised not to rush to surgery. How long should I wait? Seeing a pain management doc and undergoing PT now.
@@jimrusch22 that's awesome! I just returned from a 3 mile walk and hour of yard work. I deal with the pain, I'm used to it. I'm taking the advice of a trusted nerosugion and getting 345 fused, lamonectomy and cyst removed Oct 8tj. He said I should do it this month but my wife have a vacation planned in Sept. I'm 61. Have a great 4th weekend!
Hi there The possible side-effects that you indicate, does that happen instantly after the surgery or it may occur even after longer period ? My wife's got lumbar fusion Almost 4 weeks ago and she still complains of pain sometimes unbearable, could it be the wound pain amd will go away in time?
Hi I'm also experience severe pain after 5 weeks... Now 5 months completed... Now I'm ok ... I'm doing physio... Don't lose hope....self confidence take a vital role in recovery...
It's my seventh week after i did my spinal fusion syrgery. Had lost strength on my left leg due to nerve damage before the surgery. Doing physiotherapy since six weeks and there is good improvement. Let's hope it all gets back to normal before I rejoing my work.
@najihamusthafa726 the nerve for my hip lower tigh were affected but if you do good physiotherapy you can surely recover just give it time and self belief
I highly suggest taking on easier workouts and activities afterward. I was a paratrooper in the US Army, and I fractured my lower back in 1997. I had no other option other than spinal fusion. I thought I can do all the things I was able to do a year after my surgery. Fast forward to 2023, I am in so much pain 24x7 below and above my spinal fusion. Avoid spinal fusion unless is necessary and tailor your exercises accordingly to avoid the long-term impact. Think 10 to 30 years from now.
@@jackdaniel-id2uw hi , thanks for sharing your experience, im so sorry that you are in such pain… Can i ask if whether the pain you are experiencing now was due to the rigorous activities just after the first year?
