    Hi! I just had the decompression surgery May 10th of 2016. I was wondering how you're recovering so far? My recovery has been excruciatingly painful but I'm finally starting to feel relief, almost 2 weeks post op.

      Hi hannah I'm just replying to tell you it took 3 months for me to start feeling better, just to let you know if your starting to feel better now that's good, just plenty rest and drink plenty most important to stay hydrated. It is a horrible operation to recover from. X
