Well, it's one day away from surgery. Within 24 hours, I will hopefully be recuperating from my back surgery.
I am a bit anxious, but not about the surgery - I don't want to wait any more to be able to feel my leg and walk normally.
I got a call from the Siouxland Surgery Center that asked me all the normal pre-op questions. If I'm on any medications, if I"m allergic to anything, if I have high blood pressure, any diseases, smoke, drink, etc. Then she said that she has a bed arranged for me to spend the night, and the room has a DVD player. She confirmed that I would likely be using that room overnight, unless something really weird happens.
Last night, I found that I was able to support almost all my weight on my left foot - tiptoes. I suppose I am either re-learning how to walk again after losing a nerve, or the rest of my calf muscle got stronger...
