Well, the day has finally come. Tomorrow I head to Dr. Abernathy in CR for a lamenectomy on my L4/L5. Anyone else ever had this done? Was wondering how long the recovery time is. After 62 days, have finally gone thru all the BS red tape of workmans comp. Gotta love em!!

Kinda nervous....

Everything works out ok. Don't know about your surgery but I know about the red tape from my own. It suks.
Let us know how things went. Good luck.

I had the other side done

Dual bypass year ago last Aug. Just tell them you want the GOOD drugs! You'll be fine. Keep us posted and good luck. When you are in recovery keep asking the nurses for your sponge bath.
