I am usually a fairly healthy type, and when I went to my doctor to discuss my back pain and was told that I would need to undergo lumbar spine surgery I was pretty shocked, because it is the first time in my life that I’ve had to undergo a major medical operation. However the operation was nowhere near as complicated as I had imagined, and I was actually back and leading a normal life within a few weeks of leaving hospital. And the good thing about it is that my back pain is now completely disappeared.
