I have a trapped nerve in my vertebrae and surgery is required to alleviate this problem. I have been suffering leg pain for some time and finally it has been confirmed that this is the cause. A skilled surgeon is going to insert a clip in my backbone to widen it and therefore relieve the pressure and hopefully this will stop the pain. As the consultant said he cannot give me a new engine but can perform an MOT! There will be at least 12 weeks recovery and at present I am trying to get as fit as possible to maximise the speed of that recovery.
I have no fear regarding this procedure though no doubt there will be some when it happens, at a date yet to be given. I am almost 66 and the consultant brought home my impending mortality when he said, if successful, I should have no need to concern myself about a recurrence in my lifetime!
And there you have it a little terse but my normal verbosity is not required, it is plain and simple,so wish me luck.
