thanks man, when i first saw surgeon at the 13 day mark and he saw me and looked at mri, he said you need surgery, but i did not jump right into and waited a bit, and i started getting better, went from 2 crutches to a cane in about 2-3 days i think, then i used cane for 2-3 days, made an appt went back today, e said yeah you are much better but i was worried about your neurologic deficit last time, so he say we can still do surgery, we can do inject or we can do nothing, lol, for now i told him inject, but he is backed up so it is not until the 16th, if i keep improving there a good chance i will cancel it, also once i stopped sleeping on our main bed that helped, its to soft so i been sleeping in one of the spare bedrooms, that damn bed i would get up after a couple of hours of shitty sleep and damn near could not walk for about 4 hours, so have to buy another mattress.
