Zolyrica Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Looks like good old ZoLy gets to have an Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion done. Basically it's pretty brutal, they cut my abdomen open low enough to get to my Lumbar 5 Sacral 2 area(just above the coccyx or tailbone). Then remove my the old disc and place a sturdy plastic type cage in there and close me up, flip me over and go at it from the back to put screws into my spine to prevent slipping of the vertebrae which is what got me in this mess in the first place. Go me! -.-' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puss in Boots Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 What led to this needing to be done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr K1tty Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 That sucks man... I've got Lumbar Disc Displacement going ... basically there's a tear in the L3 disc, but I'm not a surgical candidate yet all I can do is get cortisol-steroid injections (like the ones that lead to the meningitis out break... so yah, i don't know when I'm gonna get another one) and live off of pain killers and muscle relaxers for another 5 years till they're willing to do surgery. So I feel your pain and hope you heal quickly! =^.^= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zolyrica Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 What led to it was just years of abuse from working in retail as a teen and playing football. K1tty I wouldn't worry about the meningitis issue, that was only one company and it isn't certain your provider was purchasing their shots from that company, just ask man, that's what I did, but the shots weren't an option because that point had been passed already, my doc was telling me about how that company is being sued by the government and what not, they dun goofed. The surgery if I decide to get it(if I don't I'll be in constant pain my entire life) will be in late January. I'm not gay, have you seen Fusion? I think having him inside me one time for a few hours would still count as college aged experimentation. Lolololimsonotgaybutittotallylookslikeiambecausewtfdamn Thanks for the good wishes all, now to play some csgo! xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puss in Boots Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Dang sorry to hear that I know my knees are poop from playing soccer for 13 years (both indoor and outdoor) and they ache all the time during the winter but that's nothing compared to this. Glad to see there is a solution to it. Also, it's only gay if balls are touching. So no tummy sticks games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 good luck bro. I'll be gentle while im in you....at first.... then when we flip you over......muahahaha its on!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zolyrica Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 Thanks Puss. Shit's rough. But Fusion, at no point do I want you to be gentle. ;D Oh god why?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HabaneroHero Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Sorry to hear. I like Puss played soccer for 25 years. High school, Div1 and then professionally. My knees hurt all the time. Only thing I can tell you is if it is at all possible not to have surgery and rehab can work do that to the fullest first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmBozels Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Hope everything gets sorted, and works out well! If you need anything, lemme know! Granted, I'm a broke college kid, but I sure can try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zolyrica Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 Pffft that's no way to party fusion, I'll bring a keg and a shit ton of snacks. lololol. Thanks all the others who wished me well. As for going to physical therapy, i had months of that shit and it just made things worse, the electroshock therapy was nice, but traction just caused more slipping.

Fusion Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 yeah it sounds like your injury was past physical therapy. I am a personal trainer with 1 year of physical therapy assistant experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Element99 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 A keg sounds nice lol. And fusion, you've got enough going on with zolyrica ;-) and how long do they say recovery might be for the surgery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zolyrica Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 Said it wouldn't be too long, just have to wear a back brace for a few months afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
