Hi, everyone,
I'm having my second surgery with Dr. Boachie tomorrow: L1-L4 with one osteotomy
and one cage. I was calm before the last surgery (T2-T12), but the past few
weeks I've been feeling very anxious. Also, for the past month I've had a sharp,
stabbing pain in the lower left unfused part of my back when I'm on my feet for
more than 10 or 15 minutes, which hasn't helped my mental state. Hopefully,
this surgery will fix everything. My husband will post after the surgery and
I'll try to post later.
All the best to everyone recuperating from surgery or anticipating surgery.
Mary, age 54
Surgery with Dr. Boachie 7/5/11, fused T2-T12
Pre-surgery T60, L52
Post-surgery T27, L33
Surgery for L1-L4 on 9/21/11
