Found out I have to have back surgery today,pinched nerve in my lower back.Tried a chiropractor,wasn't doing me any good.I has been bothering me for a couple weeks which I did see my doctor right away and the good news it is going to be done by laser.Specialist knew it was tried once before with the chiropractor a couple years ago which did work.Shown me the x ray,not good.Going with the laser,one small cut with a quicker recovery instead of months off the job with the regular surgery recovering.My step dad had this done a year ago and he is doing good ever since.Said I will do fine and the surgery is in a couple weeks with about 6 weeks off of work.
