As I make my decision to have or not have surgery, I still have a few questions that remain unanswered. Hope some of you can help.
1. I was told I need to be fused from T7-L4. What will my flexibility be like after surgery? I imagine myself moving like a robot and not being able to tie my shoes or pick things up off the floor.
2. I have a hump on the upper right side of my back. Will that diminish after the surgery?
3. How much height is typically gained after fusion? (I realize that everyone is different). My curve is 60*.
thanks so much!
