Hi Stephen, After my first ops, the neurosurgeon said it's better to stay fit, as long as you're sensible, and if running suits you, then do it. After my last op, a new neurosurgeon has asked me to lay off for six weeks, but has never precluded running. So, I'm aiming to get back end of May if possible, with a slow build up over a month or so. He suggested flat surfaces so my weaker foot can cope, so as not to twist it. Remain optimistic and I wish you luck. Keep us posted, it means a lot when we can't do what we like, but there's always hope. Cheers Andy |

Good luck Stephen, had my op a month or so ago now, still getting twinges, and have a weaker foot, but am hopeful that will improve. As I said, this was my fifth, but I have always bounced back it were, and I don't think the running caused it or even exacerbated it, just lifting stuff I think. Keep us posted as to you're progress, go in to the op with optimism to return to what you like doing, and all the very best to you. Cheers Andy | |

| Golly, just stumbled across this thread, fills me with some hope. Looking at micro op number 5 this year, need to get back to running. Have ran well for a good couple of years prior to this episode eg 8 HM last year . 49 and not willing to admit defeat!!! | |
