Hello Somethingserious,
I have not had back surgery, however, if
you go to the "Laser Spine Surgery" thread
there are a number of people who post on
the thread who have had back surgery. I'd
encouurage you to take a read through
their stories.

I had a laminectomy on my cervical spine
to remove a bullet. That level is fine,
but now I am disabled with lumbar
degenerative disk disease.
I have not had lumbar surgery and I'm not
a good candidate for it. I did get six
facet injections a couple of weeks ago and
the pain has let up for now.
