Life Regret, Regret....

badgirl · 06-19-2010, 10:07 PM

I truely regret having had my back surgery. I have more pain now than ever in my hip and back whereas it used to be mostly in my leg.

I talked to the surgeon last week about it and he said I went back to work to soon and he wished I could find a different line of work, he said the kind of work I do that I will probably always have pain cause I keep it inflamed. He said he moved around tendons and ligaments and muscle and removed a large herniation and I went back to work before it had time to heal.

I cannot change jobs and even when I finish school the work is still hard manual labor.

I don't know what to do....I had hopes of being better after surgery and now its worse than ever.

If I had the luxury of not working I may heal one day, but thats not an option as its not for most of us.

absolutely not. As long as I can function I will work. Nothing against it if its absolutely necessary, but as long as you can work I think you need to.
