My 16 year old daughter had her operation 14 weeks ago. She was 68 degrees and was fused from T3 - L2. She has been feeling really good so it has been hard preventing her from taking part in the active sport/dance lifestyle she had before the operation. We haven't let her go back to ballet lessons as we were told by the drs that she couldn't dance to 6 months post op. She can't understand this as she is feeling really good and is going behind our backs and taking part in a dance routine at school. Is there anyone on this forum who has gone back to dance and if so how soon after surgery. Also can anyone tell me what could happen if she went back too soon as she may listen if I had more information to put her off.
Also she can lift her leg really high at the front but can't lift it high at the back (I think its called an arabesque). The doctors were puzzled about this. Are there any dancers out there fused down to L2 who can lift there leg high at the back. Hopefully this movement will come back in time but if it doesn't there is probably no point going back to ballet lessons.
