Nuther Back Surgery

Word of advice. When your dr says you are done with physical therapy but take it easy for a while, he DOES NOT MEAN ITS OKAY TO LIFT A SMALL REFRIDGERATOR!!! Nobody told me this; i learned the hard way. And wouldn't you know it, *POP* i felt my back go out. Dr. Becker did an MRI and i busrt into tears when he said i opened my spine again. He hugged me and we began the process again. I'll prolly have the surgery in about 2-3 weeks. I like him, but there's a greater risk for complications and paralyzation. I'm scared.
