Will I ever recover from my operation for spinal stenosis?

And you, who received this surgeon's ministrations? What do you say? Have you posted your story and I can't find it (apologies, if so)?
How are you, post surgery. If you agree, hallelujah! If not, please... your one sentence offering is tantalizing.

The surgery was successful in that I am able to walk now whereas it was very difficult to do pre-surgery. My spinal stenosis had gotten to the point that it was essentially disabling.

My doctor made no promises. I am better. I take 4 to 5 pain killers a day instead of 16 pills. I'm more mobile. I've accepted that I will never be completely pain free. I'm trying lazar treatments along with accupuncture. I do have some pain free days after. Chiropractic also helps temporarily.
