Hey Everyone,
I had my two weeks post-op appointment today and it went great. They removed all the staples and it feels so much better with them gone. The doctor is still a little concerened that I still have a tiny bit of forward lean but over all we're very pleased so far. One of his students (a
Fellow student, I think that is what they are called when they are doing a fellowship) who was in the operating room was there today also and told me that he had gone all over the hospital looking for me on Monday, June 6th. He said he checked the 18th floor (where I had been), then checked the 14th floor, talked to the nurses, couldn't believe I had been released the day before so he then checked with admissions. Since I left the hospital I have not used a walker or cane or anything for assistance in walking. Granted, I do tire and walk slowly but I'm able to do it in an upright position. I still have all the same restrictions as the first surgery, I go back July 15th for x-rays and another checkup. Let's hope everything keeps going good.
