My Dad Is Out Of Recovery/Talked To Him On The Phone |
|
my son is talking to him now...
he's a little doped up, and all, but it went well. They are expected to get him up and walk him :wow: this evening.
amazing
They put some kind of hardware in his back to keep the vertebrae from pinching his nerves in his Lumbar spine
Amazing...
:bounce:
:woohoo:
Thanks again for all the good vibes loungers :yourock:

and I was surprised they will walk him.
They don't know if he will have immediate relief, relief that takes some time, or none, but getting him up to walk will be informational in that regard since he will be able to tell if he is better.
He's pretty doped up though lol
I think SPK jr got a kick out of that
thanks
:hug:

yes and it is amazing too
I remember he had back surgery 30 something years ago and he was in bed for what seemed like weeks
I know it is a different procedure altogether
hope it is successful and healing is rapid
he was getting to where he couldn't walk very well at all because of nerve impingement and was in a lot of pain.

13. He's had trouble walking that got worse |
|
since last summer
he had conservative treatment (PT and NSAIDs) and that helped, but the pain and trouble walking returned so he saw a neurosurgeon a couple of weeks ago and had surgery this morning/afternoon.
thanks

getting up and around is probably important for the recovery, but yeah, we've come a long way from when people stayed in bed for days, or worse, from when they couldn't fix this stuff at all.
I'm glad things went well.
