Hello everyone! My name is Jasson, and I was a virile young 25 years old before having a Charite ADR at L5-S1 two years ago. Just signed up here to feel a sense of comraderie and understanding. Life is not so great these days. My psych doc said it would be good to find a chat support group, so here I am. Look forward to meeting all of you in due time!

I have posted my timeline if you will in the ADR forum. I left out some things like SI injections,etc. It should be fairly comprehensive though, thanks everyone!

Chillee:

Welcome to this forum. It would help us to get to know you better if you expound on what brought you to this point of reaching out for help.

ADR at 25 is pretty young. What was the diagnosis to get you to an ADR at such a young age? Were you involved in an accident? What is going on for you today to make it seem so hopeless?

Look forward to getting to know you better.

There are many here who may point you in a different direction to get you to a pain free life.

Jasson, just replied to your post in 'Surgical Outcomes' asking the same questions as Terry here.
No need to post or reply in the two forums.

Thanks for your help guys and gals. I did post today in the surgery section for ADR as much as I could remember. I know I left out some facet injections and other stuff, but it's a pretty good synopsis off the top of my head. Let me know, thanks!
