I didn't think to ask,and I can't find an answer in "search".
Will this incision be on top of my fusion scar, or to the side of it? Just curious.

Thanks, Linda!
I swear that I am more in "Nesting" mode now than whenever I was about to give birth. I am cleaning like crazy, moving through this house like the friggin' white tornado. By Tues, I am going to NEED to sleep all day.
