Post-op Laminectomy. Week 2. This recovery is hard. Should it be?

Praying for you, denman55, and effective resolution to the surgery condition.
I just finished 3 laminectomies and fusion. If you can, focus in on Psalm 23 as it was God speaking to you. Keep reading it. The diversion from your pain softens the discomfort. Also, if you haven't as yet, walk. Walk every two hours. The walking felt good and diverted my attention from the pain. Stop and talk with nurses and staff. This makes the day palatable.
Nonetheless, I will pray for wisdom in correcting laminectomies, improved and accelerated healing. Looking forward to a virtual smile from you.

I wish I could walk but right now I have severe Sciatic pain in my (R) leg which prevents me from doing any type of real walking - this pain is just horrible and I don't know what the surgeon is going to do to fix this.
