I just had surgery last Thursday 6/1 fusion of L5S1 I was in the hospital for five days and even though I'm home am still limited to being up and walking. Today I started having little stabbing pains in both legs left more so, even when I'm laying down with them elevated there's pain. Anybody ever had this before?

yes, i had something similiar. i had surgery on my stomach. After being home for 2 days i started having severe pain in my right leg, no matter what i did, warm pads, tried to walk it off, or hot showers. Nothing helped. On the 2nd day, when i woke up, i could not walk on that leg. i called my doc, who had me return to the emergency unit, were i had a severe blood clot in my lower right leg. call your doc asap and tell him your problem. i was told i was lucky to get there in time, and had to go on blood thinner meds for 6 months
