I was reluctant to post about my two years follow up because so many people are having problems and I didn't want to brag about myself. But I thought that sharing my good report will help those considering or getting close to the surgery date, so here it goes.
Dr. Hu said everything looks good and all the hardware is in place. I don't have any restrictions and she even gave me a green light for a little jogging, and I thought that it's a no-no with fusion to sacrum. I am doing zumba, swimming, working out 5 times a week and enjoying a little jogging around neighborhood. I was never a runner before, but getting a kick doing it now just because I CAN. Sometimes, when I am in bed, my right foot tingles, but this is very minor. I work full time and dress up in form fitting clothes every day. People often ask me why I am doing this fashion show haha. They don't understand that after a lifetime of wearing baggy clothes, I am still in euphoria stage that I CAN wear anything I want!
I am very happy that I had this surgery! I wish more people could say that. I feel a little guilty writing this and thinking about Susan, who had her original surgery with the same doctor at about the same time... Hope she gets better and all of the folks getting surgery soon, have a good outcome. Cheers to all of you!
