...and never to the revision board. I guess I thought after having my surgery over 2 years ago, that I was finished. Well, guess what? Turns out I'm not finished at all. I have developed a flatback deformity which will require more surgery. I am still reading and gathering information on the type of revision surgery I will likely need, but I have decided to go ahead and have the operation late spring/early summer of next year. I guess, I am interested in hearing from folks who have been through it. What the preparation is like, what the recovery is really like, etc. Thanks, everyone.
