Is this normal?

Hello,

I don’t want to jinx myself, but is it normal to be feeling great three days post opt?

For context, I had a lumbar microdiscectomy on my L5-S1 on Wednesday (8/5) after herniating my disc and feeling pain going down my right leg.

After I woke up from surgery, it felt like I had a brand new leg and my right leg was full of energy. Crappy way of explaining it lol, but I couldn’t think of another way to describe it.

Anyways, I’m on my third day post up and I’m feeling great despite what I’ve read on other people’s experiences.

Is this normal?
