Hi Ed,
My one year anniversary is tomorrow. You have a great memory! I celebrate by seeing Dr. Askin in Brisbane tomorrow and lunch out afterwards. Hopefully he'll cut me loose if everything's in its right place. I'm only having x-rays so he won't be able to tell me if I'm fully fused. I think a ct scan is necessary to see if fusion is complete.
As for how far along I think I am in recovery, I've thought 100% for a while now. No pain since 3 months, and my flexibility has improved since then. Still can't trim my toenails, though trying would make a good Funniest Home Video. But that's the only thing I can't do, so I'm happy with that.
