Have you had a successful back surgery?


i had surgery to repare a ruptured disk in my lower back. i dont really suffer from extreme back pain anymore..but i still have numbness in my right leg. there is nothing doctors can do..just wait with you. has anyne had back surgery? and was it successful? did you go back to your normal life? do excercises? i hear of people doing all kinds of crazy stuff after back surgery like motorcycle racing and things..i wouldnt risk it..but have there been any great success stories?

numbness is possible, talk to your doctor about lyrica, neurontin, cymbalta, amitriptyline etc, good luck
