dippy bird Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Hi folks, thankyou all so much for your messages and good wishes. I am now back at home being looked after my my OH the surgery went really well although the surgeon said that my disc was in a much worse state than he originally thought, so much so that my nerve has now got a kink in it! He said it was actually a talking point between him and his collegues! I cannot begin to tell you of the immediate relief I felt when I woke up from the op! Absolutely amazing! Now it's just a matter of taking time to let my spine heal. Thankyou all again for your kind words and good wishes. X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
