August 2015 I had back fusions for a very bad back, and rt leg pain. It helped my back, not my leg. 2 months ago I had surgery again on my back. Leg still hurts, the pain ran around my left leg, up and down the right, and my butt too. Today I decided to drive and take care of a couple errands. Now I'm in bed with way more pain. Looking now from others who can relate with each other. Here I am a 65 yr old woman who was active just a few years ago.

Welcome to our friendly fibro forum where you can find advice, support, help and understanding, along with a chuckle or two to lighten the day.

I think a lot of us look back and wonder at how we used to manage work, raising a family, long dog walks etc. Sadly for many we won't get that back, but now we have time for new interests. Chatting on the phone, reading, catching up on the Boxed Sets, other hobbies, all the stuff we never had time for in our busy lives.

You can tell I am a half glass full person!

I do hope your pain eases soon and you will feel more comfortable.

Take care

Kay
