Hi Everyone :-)
Is it "normal" to not be able to lift anything after having scoli fusion....I mean, I can lift but I'm in pain while I'm doing it or for sure afterward. Lifting a child, lifting groceries, etc. are the things I'm referring to. I'd Never be able to mow the grass or shovel snow of course! It's been so long since my surgery (10 years) that I've just gotten used to doing these things in pain. Somewhere I have in my head that my doctor said I'd never be able to lift more than 10 pounds...could that be right? Or maybe I just came up with that on my own since I've always had pain lifting anything.
thanks again all!
