Update to all,

According to Zeegers and Jung, the surgery was a success using active L. As observed from the disco, it was evident during surgery that the disc had ruptured wiyh nerve compression. Post surgery has been up and down, mainly dealing first with the drain and then with soreness in the implantation area. The anterior incision has no pain. I have some months ahead of pt and just to realize that the results for this don't come overnight. They have had me up walking everyday and my first pt session was today. When we arrive back to the flat in the Hague, I've got a flight of stairs to climb, otherwise I'd say it's all downhill from now.

Thanks for the encouragement!
