I was going back to work and I have lasted OK (WITH EFFORT) however the tiredness from last cycle has taken its toll, and on top of this I have a neourosurgen, who wants to do a fusion in my lower spine (I suffer with chronic lower back pain) and I have to make a dicision within the next 3 weeks. I know I have to do something - the lower back pain is getting worse, my legs are getting heavier and heavier, the burning in the soles of my feet is continual - what worries me is the effect of the surgery. I dont need this to kick start the Ch's again. Anyone got anything to say - I am not happy about the surgery but of course my next biggest fear is "what if that f----! pain comes back because of the operation and the anesthetic?" Anesthetic numbs the brain, so does Alcohol - is this going to do switch it all on?? Anyone had any experience here!??
