Exactly one year ago now... I was still in the OR for my first anterior surgery. Today is a very special and emotional day for me... I feel great with some pains and aches sometimes, but in general, I cannot complain. My back, cosmetically, is still not perfect. I still have a small rib hump but nothing compared to what I had before. I can wear cute dresses and clothing that had never fitted me propertly before. I have a bit of a belly from the lordosis created by surgeon, but again that is a small price to pay for having a healthier back. I am becoming more flexible with time and I can finally start excersicing on my own. Although, I have not seen my Doctor yet for my year appointment, I know he will give me the green light to start physical activity. I am thankfull for your support throughout those first 3 month that really were crucial for me. If any of you need information or have questions, please, do not hesitate to ask. Surgery was the right decision for me because I did have a 98 degree curvature. I defenitely don't regret my decision!
I read in another post about popping and cracking sounds... yes, I do have them as well, but I don't feel its harmfull.
cheers,
Pilar
