Note
Slowly recovering. The pain from the incision has gone down quite a bit, as has the stiffness. The cold/flu I picked up in the process is also slowly subsiding, so I think I am on the mend. Still can't quite tell if the nerve pain in the leg and back is completely gone, but just standing up and sleeping are both much easier than they were before the surgery. I will go to the surgeon for a follow-up visit on Tuesday and will hopefully learn more and start doing some light exercise.
