I have had two disc operations one before and one after diagnosis. Both were fine and the joy. Of no pain was incredible. The second was better as they managed bleeding better and I had more antibiotics to prevent infection. Just ensure they are aware.
That's interesting re mycophenolate. I haven't been told to stop mine and I'm having lumbar decompression surgery on 3rd March
