Thank you. This is helpful. What I'm reading is there is a spectrum of recovery, and sometimes very slow results. My mom had it done in Sept. There was some relief, but she is still having back and leg pain and tingling in the feet. She started PT this week. Fingers crossed for more recovery. She is currently using a walker.

I had the MILD procedure in early October on L 2-3, and 4-5. I had a steroid injection at the time of the procedure which helped short term. I’m in a lot of pain again in my lower back
buttocks and my ankles. My feet tingle, but that’s very minor. I messaged my dr yesterday and his reply was that it could take 6 mo to a year for the full effect. The pain in my buttocks is the worst. Hard to sit down and move. Not too happy yet.
