61 yo with severe 3 level lumbar spinal stenosis w back and leg pain fixed today

... W 3 level spinal microsurgery laminectomy.
The laminectomy is sorta like a "Roto-Rooter" to clean out the three tight spits that I am pointing out on his MRI. Surgical time 1 h 49 minutes.
Should be able to stand and walk much better and will go home tomorrow.
A good day.
