Pat, we may butt heads here from time to time, but I am wishing you the best in your recovery.  I'll even bend a knee and send up all the positive energy I have.

Water under the bridge, Pard. Thanks very much. I am touched. 
 

 

 

 

 

Well Everyone,

I truly appreciate your warm and wonderful words. 
 

I just woke up from a Norco induced nap.

(Not Norco CA, former home of EOT)
It dawned on me that 20 years ago...or probably even less, one could not get this type of surgery and go home and sleep in one’s own bed. 
 

It also dawned on me that 1 Norco 7.5 / 325 mg caplet for this kind of pain definitely is not enough! I should have asked for the next level up. If you should ever have surgery like this I recommend asking the doctor what pain med you will get and tell her/him to take it up a notch. Not kidding! At least for the first day home. 
 

Mama made Chili...Mama makes darn good Chili...I gotta go 

[LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L 2,012]

Prayers for speedy recovery!

[Sawyer 243]

Glad it was quick, hope a full recovery follows the same schedule!

[Tennessee Trapper Tom 510]

Prayers up

[Capt. James H. Callahan 1,682]

Prayer sent for my old Wire Posse pard. I blew my L4-5 disc years ago and had to get cut on, no fun a'tall. Hope Pat has as good results as did I.

[Sedalia Dave 12,831]

WHEW.

 

Sure am glad Pat came out of surgery ok. Otherwise Barkeep would have closed his tab and several of us would have to pay for our own drinks..

 

BTW now comes the hard part. PT.  Hang in there and get well soon. 

[Silver Creek Jack 267]

Prayers for a successful surgery and rapid recovery Pat!!  SCJ

[Father Kit Cool Gun Garth 6,710]

Pat,

      Ecstatic that your surgery went well.

      Just a few things to remember:

 

1.  Take your medicines as prescribed;

2.  Let mama take care of you;

3.  Know we are all here for  you, for whatever you need;

4.  Don't skimp on the Physical Therapy;

5.  Moving a mouse on your computer, or typing on your phone in the Forums IS NOT considered PT;

 

      And on that note, here is a little humor to comfort you during your recovery.

 

 

 

And finally, this one came to me compliments of Ms. Allie Mo ....

Get well, cowboy! We’re all pullin for ya.

[Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 6,661]

Did Pat just admit he was "touched" to J. Mark Flint?

Anyway Pat, as long as you're getting better.

It’s the pain meds got him confused 

[Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 3,367]

After reading all of the nice things everybody said about Pat, I am suspicious that he is just shamming to get all of attentions and then he will shill us for drinks. 

[Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 6,661]

Now that is a possibility.

How about it Pat?

Let's see them scars, x-rays or the Sawbones report LOL 

[Noz 1,926]

You can recover: I had back surgery recently. Recently being 1975. I still around so there's hope. Work at getting better.

[bgavin 1,567]

Wishing you both a speedy and a full recovery.

[Calamity Kris 2,204]

Glad to hear things were successful and you're on the mend.  Prayers continuing for complete recovery and relief.

I ain’t doin’ nothin’ and those doctors aren’t the boss o’ me!

Sorry I'm late to wish you well Pat Riot, hope all is going well. As the recipient of 3 back surgeries ending with an L5-S1 fusion, I can relate to the pain level after surgery. Listen to the docs and the PT folks. Don;t ask me how I know this.

I had the herniated disc between L5 and S1. My disc between L4 and L5 is compressed and the entire "L" section is loaded with arthritis. My doctor tells me there is more surgery in my future. We will see about that. Thanks for the advice. Will Do.

[Chili Ron 939]

Howdy,

Talk the pain over with your doc.  

Read the dosage and see what options are on the package.

AS NEEDED is really pretty vague.

You don't get extra points for being in pain.

Best

Damn, PR, that sounds exactly like the diagnosis I received after my fusion. My L4-L5 opening is narrowing but not enough to warrant more surgery. Yet.
