I am finally in auto pilot. No more crazy hunger, no more starchy cravings. Things are good on the diet front.
As far as my body is concerned though, things are not so good. Had a CT scan and a follow up with the surgeon. He says I need an L3/L4 fusion. The pain I have been struggling with for the past year is caused from a cyst that developed because the L3/L4 disc has degenerated to the point of bone on bone joint contact. According to him, remove the cyst, open up the vertebral level, fuse, and 3-4 months later, I am good to go. Really? I am terrified.
