 I think so. It’s day 3 and I was hoping I would be moving around a lot more by now 🤷‍♀️ 

I definitely feel the back pain gone, but now it’s just post surgical pain I think

 Lower back right?

 Yup! They thought the pain was from that kidney stone, but when it passed, it was still there. So it took quite a while to get this figured out

 Are they going to do any physical therapy for you later? To strengthen your back

 I’m not sure. I did it for a few months before. I wouldn’t mind going back, but I doubt my insurance will want to cover it

 Figured. I pinched a nerve in my spine and went to physical therapy but it didn’t help. Lumbar extensions and deadlifts are what got rid of my lower back pain. You probably don’t need deadlifts unless you wanna build muscle though. Hope that helps. https://image.nostr.build/e08add237f8b13fd178753fcb72b2593ac06c38d2a7d55e62bee837c5e9c4c79.jpg

 No idea at this point. Before they were strengthening accessory muscles to take the strain off, but now it could be different 🤷‍♀️ can’t imagine working out at this moment 😂
