I've just had
a 4 level lumbar laminectomy myself.
I agree, it's no damn fun getting old is it? :-))))))))))))

Damn, been there, done that. Mine was about 7-8 years ago. Since then, I
had to have it fused, after no improvement, and increased pain. I hope your
operation takes.

Fusing is much harder and more painful, if you can imagine that. Take care
of this one, and exercise the hell out of it, ASAP. Keep flexible. Good
luck!
