Me and My Operation: Sharon Palmer
- Lower back pain is the biggest cause of UK disability affecting nearly one in ten
- Sharon Palmer, 55, from Hornchurch, Essex, had a new implant to ease the pain
- The procedure offered superb results and have transformed her everyday life
Agonising pain in my lower back came out of the blue about 19 years ago. It started as a constant dull ache, and my GP told me to try to cope with it as they didn’t know the cause and said it was just one of those things.
But it got worse and became so bad that at times I couldn’t walk or sleep properly. The pain was excruciating, worse than childbirth — sometimes the only way I could get about was to crawl.
