Jacob, what a story. Seems like you have been through a lot! I think everyone on here has pretty much the same story including me. I was in pain for almost 3 years and tried everything I could think of. Except the ones insurance wouldn't cove (stem cells, prolotherapy, etc..). I had my L5-S1 done February 28th and I am doing great. I return to work next Thursday. I too was apprehensive about going under the knife but was pretty much at a dead end with no options left. I'm so happy I did this, I get to move on with my life! If you read some of the stories on here I'm sure it will give you some motivation!
Good luck! Keep us posted on what you do.
