    Little concerned fellas

    Had spinal fusion surgery in Nov. Had a bout with a blood clot, recovery was horrible.. Last month everything appeared to be on the right track, even went back to work. Last night my legs went numb and I couldn't move them. About 2 minutes later feeling came back and I was able to move them. I have a annoying pain now where the surgery was.

    Doc is sending me for an MRI to check the rods and bolts, possibility that something has started to come undone. I am sweating it, don't want to go through another surgery and be laid up again.

    Just keep positive thoughts my way. Sbr was huge for me watching the stupid shit people post while I recovered keeping me entertained. I don't want to have to need the entertainment again.

    haha I was just playing dude... Sounds like it could be something serious so don't fukk around! Make some life changes. Get active, eat clean, drink water non-stop, and get into something proactive like yoga or meditation...

    You'd hate to look back on your death bed and realize these simple steps could have helped you live longer.

    I saw the thread title and thought it would be about some stressed out or pissed off midgets.

    Good luck with your recovery

    If they thought it was that I would be in the ER right now, so that appears to not be it and I am on blood thinners already until June for the previous clot

    Dj, no biggie. Unfortunately this was an injury that I got at work years ago and never claimed. Had nothing to do from bad living, that would be an easy fix.

    We will just have to see...

    Surgerys already been done, either the titanium rods have come a little loose, bone has cracked a little or muscle is pushing nerves.

    No surgery needed!!! It's all muscle issues from the surgery and the type of work I do hasn't allowed the muscles to heal properly so I am getting spasms which are putting pressure on my spinal cord. Easy fix, physical therapy.

    Thanks for the positive thoughts and vibes, looks like it will finally start getting better!!

    I had the same surgery on my c-5 c-6 and c-7. Shit ain't nothing nice.

    Every few months I start to get a pain in my neck, my arm starts to hurt and get weak feeling, and I start to panic that it's gonna get bad again, but it always goes away a week or so later.
