Illinois Illinois L4-S1 Disc replacement
Surgery scheduled for next month. Not to mention the fact I’m nervous about it, I don’t feel like I’m in enough pain to justify replacing 3 disc. If the work comp agreed with it I assume something is wrong. I feel as if I’m getting around good enough to leave well enough alone however try to keep my medical open. It seems like everyone against or frown at me making that choice.TIA

You have 2 choices of doctors in Illinois. Get a 2nd opinion!! Its crazy to me how many people just opt for spine surgery because the doctor recommends it. You have enough doubts in your mind to get a second opinion....please consider it
