So I went today and did all my preop and check in at the hospital. I have to be there bright and early on Monday morning at 5:30 am, uggghhhh! My doctor did some final x-rays and my lumbar curve has already progressed to 56* and we are doing the fusion T4 to L4.

The rest of the weekend will be pretty busy but I'll try to post on here with an update sometime next week and let ya'll know how everything went. Thank you so much for all the support and words of encouragement from everyone on here. You have no idea how helpful it has all been.

All the very best Allison. Soon you will have this behind you and you can concentrate on recovery...and the rest of your life. Hope the weekend speeds by for you and you find some kind of calm, as many of us here have, in those last few days. I'll be thinking of you.

Try to rest & relax as much as possible today and tomorrow.Go treat yourself to a masage or a facial...it will help a little! Remember to breath and stay postive....you will be okay. :) Please let us know how are you doing when you are able. IS anyone posting for you w/your update, etc, while your in the hospital?!

Take care!! :)

Be strong Allison! I believe you will get past this and be happy you did it like the people we get inspiration from in this forum! I hope you log back on to let us know how quickly you are recovering. After all, you are a young chicky! :)

Wishing you the best!
