Hi everyone,

Had a question and answer appt with my Dr.

Surgery- 3 bars fusion from T2 through L2 Yikes Posterior only so this means I will pretty much have a veeeeeeeeeery long scar down my spine

Bmp has not been accepted by FDA yet in US- figures. This supposed to take place of Bone graphs.

I will be in the hospital anywhere from 5-7 days
I should have someone to help for at least 3 weeks

Soonest I will have the surgery is Jan. 2006

I will also be meeting with another Dr. soon. Just thought i would see if his type of surgery is the same.
