@annie1 Anne, I'm glad you got through your surgery. From here out, it just takes patience while you wait for your body to heal. When I had my spine surgery at Mayo, there was no recommendations for supplements to help nerves heal. That is a long process and may take a couple years. The experience that I can relate to that is that I had very irritated nerves from an epidural injection that caused a reaction with burning electric shock pain that went on for a couple months. That left me with a hand that was sensitive to heat and cold, and that took a year and a half to resolve. There is no difference now. I would think that the same things involved in good health such as a nutritious diet and exercise like walking will help you heal, and what ever your recommendations are for supplements for osteoporosis since you need to heal some bone. Walking will help get the oxygen distributed through your body and that helps healing.

Are you able to tell this early if there has been improvement in your pain and functioning? You still have inflammation now of course, so it may take a while.
