My laminectomy was for L4 and L5. The bones that were pressing the nerves were cut off and my own bone, from another vertebra, was fused, and screws stabilized the graft.
The surgery was done at Andrews Clinic in Gulf Breeze, FL. by Dr. Mark Giovanini. Google it.....micro spine surgery. This procedure is probably done near you. One night in hospital, short recovery time...
Good luck. I know what you are going through.
I meant to send the message to you and Trussell.....please check what I sent to her.
Thank you for the update: Will pray.
(((((Heartfelt Prayers Ascending, Dear Trussell)))))
Prayers up.
Got some bad news (or maybe not if I chose to believe God has a reason for this)...the insurance is dragging their feet in getting this approved, so now...I have to wait until the 2nd week of February. I was looking forward to having this for relief sooner than that.
Continued prayers
BTTT
That is SO frustrating!
I will keep praying, of course!
((((HUGS))))
Well, the insurance companies can rot in Hades for all I care.
The Lord has you in his hand, relax. We are all sending prayers.
Basticthes.
Let’s go with “God has a reason” (that I wish we could fathom). Prayers for you, trussell.
Prayers sent.
Keeping you in my prayers, t. My favorite scripture is “God Is perfecting that thing that concerns me”. He Is- count on it. I hope you are a finding a way to at least be more comfortable.
Dang! I was hoping you were getting help sooner rather than later!
Continue Prayers.
God be with you that this period of suffering is not without merit.
Continued prayers for you.
Trussell, I am so sorry that you are in pain and have to suffer disappointment on top of it. But, keep your chin up and know that God never leaves us alone. He may have something else entirely for you (who can know?) that is better than what is now planned.
As I’ve had opportunity to look back on some situations, I’ve been able to see things come together in ways that were a testament to the hand of God working miracles. Things that seemed to go wrong turned out to be a true blessing in the end.
Hang in there and know that you have the prayers of so many who care.
