Lumbar spine surgery recovery

Hi anyone had lumbar spine surgery L3/4 - Laminectomy and Foraminectomy at L4/5 and L5/S1. I did 4 weeks ago. I am looking for chat support. My name is Tom. Severe spinal stenosis, herniated in sleep, surgery after about 11 weeks of right leg pain. Post-op energy low; used wheelchair and walker almost 20 days then walking a lot; no leg pain except sometimes at night. Age 65.
