Do people with complicated revisions live by themselves & if so, how do they care for themselves.
No family nor friends due to issues. Saw 1 Dr last wk. in LA seeing Dr Bederman 22nd. Don't know if I told you but this is what 1st Dr said:
Fused T4-S1, stopped counting loose screws,(holes too big/angels wrong), broken fusions,
1. Never talked about the neck cause he ran out of time! That is an issue as well.
1. Horrible infection in Thoracic, still on antibiotics
2. Thoracic now sticking outwards (not to side) 50 degrees in maybe 6 months. Terrible pain to walk,I try mile/day. Can't stand up straight.
3. Many fusions did not fuse (don't know exactly how many or where….was not told, forgot to ask.)
4. Screws:Can pop through skin.(rest of issues above)
5. Need bolt in Sacrum.
6. Need anterior and posterior
7. No family and I need to exercise daily and take care of myself.
HOW? I have new email: peacefulgal@me.com
All suggestions welcome
Thanks!
