jzomberg created the 0 A Surgery Can't Keep Me Down BodyGroup.
Why I Started This Group: I looked everywhere for people who have had a spinal fusion surgery ( for me it was L4 and L5 ) and were still able to live a life of heavy lifting.

jzomberg created a new BodyBlog entry "The Operation".
The Operation I wanted to include a few pictures of the MRI's I had done and me post surgery. Look closely, you can see where the disc is bulging.
