I had a laminectomy in 12/02 for removal of a spinal cord tumor and wish to resume running but my neurosurgeon tells me if I do, then in 5 years I will need a fusion because I do not have enough structure at L3-5 to protect my disks from the jarring from running. I want to learn about the actual experience of others who have returned to running after a laminectomy, too.
