I am delighted to report that I'm doing much better. There's still a very subtle numbness in my hand and some marked triceps weakness, but the pain is almost completely gone. Just the occasional little twinge or ache, but I no longer need any pain meds except for the rare NSAID. I ended up getting two nerve root blocks and will be able to avoid surgery at least for now. At my followup I was told I am cleared to do anything I feel up to, but after this experience I am still going to take it slow. I have, however, resolved to take this as a wake up call and get in better shape. Thanks to all!
