pity party

i saw the surgeon today. i made this appt. over a month ago when i cried "uncle" on my back that has been aching non-stop for over 1.5 years. my leg goes numb with increasing regularity and i've stopped doing most things because of the pain.

i was prepared for 4-8 weeks recovery.

when i saw the surgeon today, he spoke of fusion, vertebrae and stenosis, is more like 4 MONTHS recovery. that amount of time, i'm just not ready to devote.

he did say that my riding days are not over. once the recovery is over (100% could take up to 1 year), i could resume my daily life.

THAT SUCKS, hence, the pity party.

in the light of day, i'm sure things will look better. right now, "not so much."
