Just a heads up for anyone who was curious. Had my appointment with ortho today. He said that he recommends surgery (spinal fusion) for my spine but that I'm too overweight to have the surgery now, so I have to lose about 50lbs before I can even think about having it.

Apparently my disc is pretty bad off, moreso than I realized. And he's going off of an MRI that's a year old now so, who knows what it looks like now. z_z I'm scheduled to get another MRI, a spinal injection, and starting physical therapy again. I did obtain a standing desk and hoping that as I lose weight it becomes easier for me to be at the computer. I want to thank everyone who has wished me well, and I hope I can improve and come back to socialize with everyone again. :(
