Mr. S. Singh - Inspirational and Motivational Journey !!! Mr. S. Singh now 37 yrs came to me 2 yrs ago when he had severe low back pain , sciatica and unilateral foot drop. His Weight was 170 kgs ( Morbid Obesity ). After comprehensive examination and investigations, He was diagnosed to have 3 level Disc Prolapses which caused unilateral foot-drop. He and his family were counselled thoroughly. It was agreed mutually to go for Non - Operative management due to his morbid obesity, multilevel disc issues and high surgical risks. He underwent a CESI ( Caudal Epidural Steroid Injection ) for pain management and was given an AFO splint with monitored physical therapy. He was motivated regularly to lose his weight to negate the obvious risks to his health and wellbeing. He has been under regular followup for the last two years and he his transformation has just been phenomenal !! His weight is now under 100 kgs !!! He is now inspiring others to get fit and healthy for a Fit Spine !!!
