Thank you all for sharing your experiences.
Our 26 year old daughter had surgery on October 29, 2007. She is due to see Dr. Antonacci on Thursday, April 17th for another check up. She has been back to work since beginning of February, 2008.As a result, it seems that her back, neck and shoulers feel tight and achy. She has a sit down job at a computer but does try to get up and walk around and stretch as best as she can fit it in.
She hasn't had PT yet. Her doctor recommended walking, walking, walking as her PT which she did before going back to work. She is hoping to be approved for PT at this appointment. Feels PT may be helpful as she is so busy at work and by the time she gets home is too tired to go for a walk. Has been walking on the treadmill at the gym when she can on the weekends.
She is also concerned about the scarring. Has been applying the Derm____ on it. She has a bit of a raised area toward the bottom where I think the drain may have been. Any one with a similar experience? There is a medical term for this. Does anyone know it?
It is very helpful to hear from others' experiences post op. Would appreciate any feedback on how they felt after 6 months or so, scarring & PT..
Thank you.
Birthday blessings for those born today and for all.
