Has anyone here had back surgery? I have two collapsed disk (thanks to an 18 wheeler at 55mph) and have done the back injections, physical therapy for 7+ months and tomorrow I have an appointment with my Doc who gave me until last Friday to start showing signs of improvement before talking surgery. Well on Friday at therapy I read my review that they are sending the doctor. It said, “his progress has plateaued”. So I’m sure I’m going t hear about surgery. Just wanted to know if any one has had it and how they are know.

(Plus was the discogram really as bad as I have read)

I was in your situation last year and found an alternitive that works great for me and several others that have tried it. It is almost to simple to work but give this a try www.lumbarextender.com
I'm not kidding this really works well for me (and my father who has had 2 surguries - 3 or 4 fused verts) I spent my last birthday weekend in the ER after collapsing from back pain, I still have 2 slightly ruptured disks L2 and L3. I have no pain outside of a little occasional stiffness in my back.
I have also had 4 ACL reconstructions (last one was 14 months ago) so I know all about surgury and recovery.
Hope all goes well for you.
