I agree with Alastair:

I am over 5 months now and still have ligament pain in the lower lumbar region, nerve pain in the feet, nerve pains that float in the legs and buttocks area, difficulty and pain with rotations, etc. It is not an easy recovery for anyone as it is major surgery. I still work out and am building up slowly to start the cycling season. Also put on a little weight in the winter that I am working at taking off. Being so fit takes work that is difficult to achieve in the winter months unless I am out x-country skiing which I avoided this season for obvious reasons.

Give yourself time Sharon. Everyone heals at a different pace though most take time.

Go with God.
