Update: Surgery Done & Road to Recovery Starts Now...
Added 2020-10-13 12:06:47 +0000 UTCI just wanted to take a moment to let everyone know that I am back home now (arrived home late yesterday afternoon) and I am doing well after my back surgery.
I have a bit of pain from the incision area and staples they put in, but I at least no longer have pain and numbness running down into the buttocks and legs (mostly down the right leg).
They were able to easily remove the bone spur, that was impinging on my spinal cord and nerve root, close me up, dose me pretty good with pain meds, muscle relaxers and sent me home to rest. I will have to continue doing that till October 28th, when I go back in to see Dr. Fischgrund and have my staples removed and truly begin rehabilitation... but of all my back surgeries that I've had, this was my best and easiest one and think that the road to recovery (so long as I don't do anything stupid) should be pretty quick as well.
I would like to thank all of my friends and supporters here and elsewhere for all of the support, love, prayers and well-wishes that we offered for me and the wife, while undergoing this and I look forward to resuming my work on the games as soon as possible.
Thank you SO MUCH and will talk to you all in a few days after I've relaxed a bit more. πππ
