Re: L5 Herniation Surgery vs Continue PT / healing [twain]
Hopefully this thread will help others that maybe going through similar stuff.

Today was first day I did not have shooting debilitating pain, still soreness achy but not to the point I was feeling like I had to throw myself on the floor to lay down to get relief.

After today I think am going to hold off on the Steroid injection tomorrow and see how the next week goes, I think that is the smart call? Maybe I will read more about them tonight and wait till morning to make a final decision.

Things I have changed this week compared to the last 8 weeks:

- Eliminated almost all inflammatory foods from my diet
- tippled my water intake to around 100oz a day
- Cut wine from my night time routine
- Found a new PT
- Started working with a pilates / movement specialist
- At work I dialed back my work schedule to see less patients
- Started sleeping on my stomach recommendation of PT since sleeping on stomach was not seeming to help things.
- Working on my mental mindset
