Hello All! This is my first post since my surgery. All in all- everything is going well. I'm still in quite a bit of pain, and had probs getting the pain under control... finally went on the fentanyl patch- and it has been a god send! Thank you to all of you who responded to my hubby's posts while I was gone.. it helped him feel not alone! My curve is now a whopping 18 degrees!! HUGE difference! I'm walking 2-3 times a day.. and trying to increase the distance every other day or so.. still, not able to do much, laying around alot, but I guess that is to be expected. My surgery was very successful- I did however, have a major complication, and was alergic to a medication at day 4, which kept me in ICU much longer than was expected. Now looking back- it was just another hurdle. Thank you to all of you who has helped me thru all this- this forum helped alot with preparing for surgery! I know we are all different- but when does the pain subside? I know, I'm getting anxious- but I would like to think it will start to go away soon.....
Thanks!
Angela
