I got up and took my shower, again with someone in room, just in case. Once dressed, my head was hurting so bad it was frightening me.

		<description><![CDATA[Everything was exactly as it had been explained to me. As I mentioned before, I had my surgery at a spine surgery center, not the regular hospital. I think this had huge advantages! I went to my “suite” (large room w/sitting area and TV, bed and bathroom). The nurse came with me. I had been [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hanoverstreet.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2969908&amp;post=81&amp;subd=hanoverstreet&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was incredibly impressed with both my surgeon and the anesthesiologist. The surgeon called me with the results of the myelogram. He said he did not feel there was any need for fusion, just laminectomy/discectomy. He spent at least 30 minutes on the phone with me answering all the questions I had about the surgery [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hanoverstreet.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2969908&amp;post=74&amp;subd=hanoverstreet&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, I finally had to have surgery. Lumbar Laminectomy/Discectomy. The short description is a small vertical incision was made in my lower back (L5-S1 area), a small piece of bone (lamina) was removed, nerve and muscles moved out of the way and the herniated portion of the L5/S1 disc was removed. Internal stitches were used, 3 Steri [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hanoverstreet.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2969908&amp;post=68&amp;subd=hanoverstreet&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After the Myelogram Hell week, the surgeon said that he is confident that lumbar laminectomy/discectomy surgery is all that is required. He sees no indication for fusion. So, that was the upside of Hell week. I am having some massive anxiety over the thought of surgery. However, I do believe that this is the right [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hanoverstreet.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2969908&amp;post=65&amp;subd=hanoverstreet&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Finally after a couple of weekends of just about constant misery I decided to consult a neurosurgeon about my back. He said surgery was a definite, but the upside [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hanoverstreet.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2969908&amp;post=47&amp;subd=hanoverstreet&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
