Hey Stan, hospital is great (not). Hope you are back on deck soon. DO THE REHAB. Had the bottom 5 dics fused and laminated 12 months ago plus disc separaters placed between the discs, structurally fine and keeps me out of a wheel chair, but I got slack with the exercises after I went back to work and paying for it now. i'm sure you will be a better patient than me.
