@closer0043 I think you can play baseball with the implant. I'm not positive though. Any update on your pain or diagnosis?

@dougs72 I just completed 11 more sessions of PT with an excellent therapist who is sending me back to my physical medicine doctor with a recommendation of a numbing shot in my jeft side L5-S1 area to diagnose if that’s where the pain originates. I’m actually hoping to get my spine doctor to perform the same surgery on my left side that he did for my right side. My right side sciatica is completely gone since his microendoscopic decompression of stenosis surgery. It went so well that I went back to the gym after only 2 weeks of recovery and messed up the left side. I wasn’t even supposed to start any PT until 4 Weeks out. 8 months later, and no improvement. I wish I would have waited. I would probably be playing baseball right now with all my friends in their 50s and 60s. All we can do is learn from our mistakes I guess.
