Hi everyone,
I had my 6 month post-op visit today, and all looks good. One of the residents said he could see a little bit of fusion in the xray, but the surgeon said that you really can't tell without an MRI and that the fact that the hardware is stable means I'm probably fused. I'm cleared to do whatever I want. I asked specifically about jet skiing because of a vacation to the lake planned for this weekend, and he said that was fine, just try not to get thrown off (which could twist me suddenly).
In other news, I've been going to the gym every day, doing an hour of cardio and alternating between upper and lower body weights, and going to yoga about once a week - it's my own mini-boot camp. Also, I'm nearly done with my master's thesis (just one more proof read to go!). So that's the news.
Best to all of you, and thanks for your support
