And the first time they told me it was going to be 30 minutes... in that 30 minutes I ate a BOX of granola bars, bad ones (well you know healthy ones) the ones that don't even taste good! Then ate an entire large pizza and then felt the need to order ANOTHER pizza. Same delivery guy... embarrassing, especially when you take into account I hadn't put on actual clothes or showered in two days, I was in PJS and looked (and probably smelled) like grim death, and was on multiple pain meds and muscle relaxers so was probably muttering incomprehensibly.

Clearly you are taking the convalescence process better than I did. Good luck!!
When my back went out, the doctor put me on steroids, painkillers and muscle relaxers. I've never been so hungry in my life. I HAD to eat a full meal every 47 minutes. I'm not sure if it was the steroids or I wasn't getting the food all the way into my mouf...
