Subject: Next step



Pittsburg, Kansas
After my 3rd operation on L5 my surgeon told me to not come back. Next time was not going to be as much fun. He said fusion was next step. On X-ray I have no space.

I had always had some lower back pain from it. Usually just minor annoyance, but if I abused it (rode tractor all day), it definitely let me know to not do that.

What I am about to say no one will believe me. But a diet change 4 years ago got rid of not only the back pain, but knee pain I had developed also. Low carb ketogenic diet. If I abuse my back it will still let me know. But the daily pain left and didn't come back. I presume from lower inflammation.
