I just had this procedure on 9-5. I still have the same pain.

You still have the same pain? I had my procedure today!

[@Chainlink12666]

@danielwilkinson5193 The stiffness when I first get out of a chair..etc went away. The lower back pain is still there when I stand or drive or sit too long but I read it could take a yr for the vertebrae sensors to die. How are you doing?

[@danielwilkinson5193]

@Chainlink12666 yes when I stand up that pain is gone, I have pain from the procedure it self. Still walk a Lil hunched over and my original pain level is down to about 6 or 7! Hopefully it will get better. And yes I still feel like sitting to long I can't do. I pray a speedy recovery for you!

@danielwilkinson5193 likewise for you. I had my 2 week followup today and was told it gradually gets better at 3 months so here's hoping.
