Had an emotional moment this morning. Went to the gym for the first time in a long time. All I did was a little time on the elliptical, but I had zero pain. No pain. I am currently in no pain. For the first time in over a decade, I am not experiencing any pain. I dont know how to describe what that feels like. Every minute of every day for the last 11 years Ive been in varying degrees of pain. Sometimes it was manageable to the point where I could live almost normally, sometimes it was so bad that I couldnt move and was in unbearable agony, but it was always there. Now its not. I have a lot of core strengthening to do after years of not being able to exercise, and Im planning on slowly easing back into exercising so I dont do something stupid (the greatest danger with this surgery is that I re-herniate an already weakened disc). But I can now at least do it without the constant fear that one wrong move will put me down for days. Zero pain. :)
