I had my last Dr. appt before my April 15 surgery this past Friday. Dr. changed my fusion from T5 to now T2-L1. Those who have had this level of fusion could you share with me how flexible you are.
Do you feel you stand and sit very erect? Are you able to move with any of the ease you had prior to surgery. My Dr. says I don't bend where he is fusing now anyway because the curve is so severe. Could you describe for me how you feel your body moves now. Sorry if these seem like crazy questions, it was just a shock to learn I have 3 more vertebrae to fuse. It's getting close and I think I'm just starting to freak a little. Thank you for any feedback you can share.
