I have recently been diagnosed with severe spinal stenosis and may have to have a laminectomy and fusion surgery.
I'm wondering if any other swimmers have had this type of surgery, and what swimming is like after it's done?
Forgot to mention the problem is in my lumbar section. (L3-L5)
I've got fused C6/C7 vertebrae in my neck which ended my high school football career many years ago. I missed about a year of sports going through recovery and rehab (mostly strength training stuff). I have some limited range of motion, but not nothing serious and nothing that affects my swimming (although some days I would like to have it as an excuse... :) ).
