How long did it take to recover after second surgery?
I had my first L5 S1 MD in October 24 which greatly improved my pain which was near debilitation at that time going down my left leg
But in the aftermath I got a constant neuropathy numbness in my left big toe which has been constant.
I, on the advice of my neurosurgeon (first MD was with an orthopedic surgeon) got a second MD in Sep 25.
Both my surgeries made me feel a little better I guess the first MD made me feel dramatically better but my neuropathy has not improved at all. Maybe very slightly improved.
I was curious if anyone has had the same experience post MD in terms of getting numbness in toes (neuropathy) and if they recovered?
I know it takes a while but just looking for some encouragement or positive stories.
