I recently had a lamenectomy (sp?) at UF Shands in Gainesville. After much research, I chose to get an appointment with Dr. Daniel Ho, a neurosurgeon with outstanding credentials. He questioned me at length about my problem, what measures I had taken, what gave me relief and then explained, with total clarity, what procedure he'd be using. Not to go into too much detail, but for months I had relentless pain and had to sleep in a straight chair with 3 pillows on a tray table.
After surgery I woke up with no pain and lying on my back for the first time in months. I still have a slight backache much of the time but I walk each day and that has become my lifestyle.
