Hey all,
Now almost 8 wks post op and doing very well. I can pretty much do all the basic things for myself now with no help. I'm still sort of stiff and it takes a minute to get loose after sitting or laying down for a while, but that's getting better every day. My main concern is my neck. It wants to look down, and it sticks out forwards. I get fatigued easily if i hold it up and tucked back. It it gets worse, what is the treatment? I can't find much on it online anywhere. If it is junctional kyphosis or it develops or my prob persists, what's there to do? Just keep fusing up? Doesn't that get really risky, the higher the fusion? Hopefully it works itself out but being 8 wks post, i'm worried it won't. Anyone with more info on the neck thing would be great to hear from.. Anyways take care and have an excellent weekend!
