Hi everyone,
I am new to the forum but have been reading everyone's posts. I must say I feel a little out of place because of my age. I am only 23 so I am not qualified as a child patient but I am still a young adult so I am hoping my recovery will go quickly. It is hard to gauge what I should expect by reading all the posts. The kids go really quickly and the adults vary on recovery times. Does anyone out there have any advice for someone my age?
Also, I am wondering about my flexibility afterwards. I am worried that I will feel "crooked" once my spine is straight since I am so used to being curved . Did anyone else feel that way or can someone explain what they felt like in the weeks following surgery?
Thanks for any advice you have to give,
Allison
