For 3 or more years I was suffering lower back & leg pains, this severely restricted my ability to walk or do any kind of physical activity.
Despite being told by consultant Dr Grivas, all the risks and reasons why I should not go through with the procedure on my spine, I decided to have a laminectomy to L3/4 L4/5 of my spine.
Following the operation I was cared for in ward 63, all the staff were amazing & took great care of me for the next 6 days. My partner bought me a pup & a Fitbit, , now 10 months after the op I walk 5miles a day with ease,
Many thanks to Mr Grivas & his team & all staff on ward 63,
"All the staff were amazing & took great care of me"
