Greetings all, I want try my luck with this vast knowledge bank...
I have been suffering from sciatica for the last 5 years. I had a couple of epidurals and that helped and little else. I have no problem when sitting down or riding. I have ridden several centuries this year and am otherwise healthy. When I have had to stand for more than a minute, the pain kicks in. Last week I had a foraminotomy and a laminectomy. I feel like I've been reborn! No more waking up and reaching for the tylenol. Now I'm going stir crazy from not riding my bike. Of course I don't want to screw up a successful surgery, but I'm in agony waiting and waiting. Any thoughts as to when the earliest sensible time to get back in the saddle? By the way, my health provider did everything to discourage me from getting this procedure. Shame on them! I feel I suffered needlessly for at least 4 years from listening to bad advise. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
