Had back surgery on Oct. 21, 2021. Two cages and support rods were installed, along with cadaver bone and hip bone marrow. Presently taking Gabapentin and tizanidine to handle the pain. Back was doing well. Started physical therapy Nov. 22nd with basic core exercises and toe lifts. Little sore after several days doing these at home. Got a Moderna booster shot on Nov. 26. On Nov. 30th, I started to get severe back pain and had trouble walking and simple things. Any possibility that the booster shot is reacting with my cadaver bone in my lower back?

I had fusion on L4-5 last January. My NS told me to wear a brace and do no PT for 4 months! Only walking. I have osteopenia. My surgery was painful but it’s healed well. I still have problems though, lower hip pain and neck pain. I’m going to tell them, my fear of more surgery is holding me back.
