Hey everybody,
Today I'm one week postop from my revision surgery. After a CT scan my surgeon thought that there were probably numerous areas of my back that didn't fuse...once he opened me up he could clearly see that only the top most level and bottom most level fused...nothing else did. But he has high hopes that using my own bone and using less pediatric approaches will fix me up all good.
I got to go home Monday evening after I finally started to keep liquid down...I was throwing everything up for the first several days...it happened to me last time too...I think my body doesn't react well to anesthesia very well.
I do have a question though...I have some numbness on the bottom of my left foot. The doctor's don't think it's permanent but it's quite annoying. Stretching it or having someone massage it makes it feel more normal but only for a few minutes. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to how I might make this go away quicker.
Thanks for all you prayers and support this last week!!! I really appreciate it!!!
