Hello, I've just been told I need to have the surgery and have been reading about what to expect, both in terms of the surgery as well as the recovery. Mostly the recovery. For those that have had it done, what did you do above what the doctor recommended to get you back as fast as possible. Years ago I think I remember reading of people using many different things such as UPS's Super Cissus, Flax oil, Fish oil, Oratropin, (which I know is no longer available), IGF-1LR3, etc. What is the current thinking on recovery supplementation? Thanks in advance for all opinions as well as recommendations based on experience.
