Progress

There's definitely less pain than there used to be, and there are more sitting positions that are comfortable than there used to be. But I'm not sure the pain levels have changed that much over the last day or two. What I have noticed today is that my stomach muscles are much stronger - it's much easier to sit up from a lying-down position than it used to be. My plan is to try a half-day of work tomorrow and a full day Thursday - no guarantees.
