Uh Oh - Romo Surgery Has A Complication

Have to think this is MUCH more serious than what we were led to believe. And apparently the "cyst surgery" may have been more then that.

But that will be the only sort of "lifting’’ Romo will be doing for a while, as sources say the three-to-four-month recovery period for back surgery is a result of the herniated disc procedure he underwent on Friday that may have revealed an additional complication: a rupture of jelly-like "disc material’’ into the spinal canal.

That "material’’ in the spinal canal can cause pressure on the nerves in the spine and a chemical irritation of the nerve roots.
