Back surgery

Thanks guys, I am determined not to blow this, as hard as it is for guys like us to sit around and watch the grass grow I know I have no choice, David it's very clear in my mind how yours didn't go so well do to your going back so soon! As I've mentioned before I have 3 daughters and the furthest one is 11 blocks away and 2 of them are teachers so they are home for the summer, and it's quite clear that they have a secret schedule where they are spending a lot more time with dad this year until wifey gets home from work, so in short I'm under a close watch!! Paul i am so looking forward to getting back on my boat it's all I think about but I know I'm just going to miss the fall run and that's all there is to it !!

The day after my last post I developed this incredible nerve pain in my entire left leg and oh my God It was bad, they immediately sent me for a Doppler looking for a blood clot, none was found and the pain slowely went away, feeling great now only thing I'm on is Gabapentin a nerve med. I was cleared to start driving again so that helps ya to start feeling normal again and Pt starts in 2 weeks, for the 1st time in 22 years I'm pain free and standing straight up, my shoulders are level again I'm told by my wife. Don't know why I waited so many years to do this!!!

watch that Gabapentin, my daughter was on a form of that medicine for a while, made her a total ***** towards everyone(she was 4 at the time), if your wife says you're being an A hole, its probably the medicine

David, you may have hit the nail on the head, just yesterday she called me that in fact, and to think I spent the entire evening yesterday thinking it was because when she got home she found the newest Sea-Doo brochure on the kitchen counter and that I spent the better part of the afternoon at the local Sea-Doo dealership falling in love with one of the newer models, Well I'm glad we've gotten that cleared up! Hehehehe.
