5+ months

Just a quick note to say all is still good.  No problems.  I've been able to make it through long days of work consisting of sitting all day with little to no discomfort.  After a long day of sitting for work, I sometimes notice some very slight numbness/decrease in sensitivity along the outside edge of the bottoms of my feet, although this goes away after laying down for a short time and does not cause my any problems or discomfort.  I have not taken any painkillers for my back since my post surgery healing phase.  I've been exercising using my elliptical machine, resistance bands, and my physical therapy circuit which seem to be fine.  Let's hope it stays this way for a long time.
