Hi everyone, I had a Microdiscectomy and Laminectomy on April 19th of this year to repair a disc herniation at L4-L5 that was pressing on my sciatic nerve and causing extreme pain. Since then, I’ve had some on and off pain and the follow up MRI show a “Reccurent right disc protrusion”. Some things said a protrusion and herniation is not the same and the surgeon said it doesn’t require a second surgery (right now at least). The mental toll from finding out what that MRI said left me nearly paralyzed with fear and an unbelievable wave of depression. It was so bad, I tried to self admit to a psych ward and had my mother take my guns because I was having suicidal thoughts. I know, as a Christian, that those are NOT the thoughts I should have been having because those thoughts absolutely would never come from my lord and savior Jesus Christ. I’ve been walking and praying tremendously for not only myself, but for every person on Earth. Specifically the ones going through similar back issues because it really is scary. My prayer request is just that God will completely heal me if it’s his will and if not, that I will be able to praise and uplift his name relentlessly no matter what happens. I love him with all my heart and I had backslidden a bit with work stress and life stress and anger, etc. but I do believe he used this injury and extremely difficult time to get me back to him. And I will listen. God bless all of you.
