Hello my friends!
As many of you know i've been dealing with a life changing work injury that occurred last November while I was restraining a combative patient at work. After a 7 month struggle with the insurance carrier (workers comp), I finally have been approved to have a 360 degree lumbar fusion, also known as an anterior/posterior fusion. So, on November 19th I will have the first of two surgeries and on December 17th, the second. In the end I will have pins, rods and cages inserted into my L4/L5 and likely L5/S1 vertebrae.
Over the course of the past year I have watched lots of video's on YouTube about the surgery, many of which have been video diaries which I found to be very helpful. Being a nurse I knew the nursing side of it but I didn't know anyone *personally* who had gone through a fusion so watching the videos and joining chat forums dedicated to spine health have been extremely invaluable to me. I have made many lasting friendships and i've gained the first hand knowledge from others that I was lacking. Because the videos I watched were so helpful, I decided to start my own video diary channel on YouTube.
I have my first two video's up and thought that I would share this very difficult time in my life with my friends here on GLP as well. So enjoy and I hope that you can find them helpful, especially if you are suffering from chronic pain or back problems.
Have a blessed day!
