I am four months post op and just found out that I have a staph infection. Which means I will need surgery again to remove the infection and another to remove a screw that will be put in L5 for stability because he has to remove two screws because they are near the infection. I am so upset with this whole surgery.
I have been out of work for 4 months and after being out for 6 months I will be terminated. So, I am probably going to lose my job of 23 yrs and great benefits and salary because of this whole mess and I am the main support of my family.
Does anyone know if I can have the rods/screws removed safely or will be spine be to weak? (I don't care if the curve gets worse).
