Bit scarce for the next few weeks

I'll be a bit scarce here for a few weeks.
Having had serious sciatica the past year or so.....seen physio, chiro, neuro, mri scan, ct scan, doctors etc etc. Kept repeating to the point that I couldn't walk or get out of bed. 3 x Spinal block injections. Only one worked. Last round of this hit me 3 weeks ago and it was bad. Constant nerve pain.
MRI scan, guy said to me I'm wasting my money on anything..I need surgery.
So last Wed I had serious spinal surgery. Screws into 3 vertebra and a titanium spacer.
Long story short..I'm very sore and kinda bed bound. Sitting at the pc is bad. But I hope to come right.
So I'll be on and off. Shouldn't influence the forum. Cheers.

Hope your recovery goes well and you are up and around soon. It doesn't sound like a lot of fun dealing with the constant nagging pain. Hope the surgery was successful and improves the situation. You are in my thoughts, wish you well! Cheers! Mike

Thanks guys. Op went ok...I am recovering slowly. Out of action for about 6-8 weeks and mainly bed bound with a little hobbling around.
But all ok, I'm still here. Thanks for the kind wishes.
