Today the doctor informed me I have a 2 herinated discs in my lower
back. They are badly damaged and the doctor surgery is my only viable
option. (this is the third opinion)

Has anyone in the group had a back operation? If so, I would like to
hear about your experience(s), both good and bad.

Thanks,

Capt. Frank


You might want to get a second opinion. I think there are some non
surgical options as well.
If it was me I would get it checked out at the Mayo Clinic.
Of course, that's because they are both good and right down the road.
