Hello everyone,

June 15th i will be having my 5th back surgery. I have been dealing with a lot of issues with my back for more than 10 years now. I'm 26 years old now. My first back surgery was Feb of 2010. We have been avoiding this fusion for a very long time. I was just wondering, has anyone on here ever had a spinal fusion? How did you feel when you woke up from surgery? How did you feel a few days post op? How are you doing now? It is very unfortunate, but i made the decision to get the surgery, hoping this surgery works after 4 failed surgeries. I'm very nervous now that i'm a week away from it.
