I haven't posted in a while but decided to update. We just received an appointment for surgery on January 26th. My daughter will be having a spinal fusion instead of growth rods like we originally discussed. I feel good about this decision even though I am very scared as I know any parent would be. I was wondering though if anyone has any experience with fusion after having a tethered cord. She had hers released in December 2007. Her surgeon doesn't seem too concerned about it and we are going to see her neurosurgeon before the fusion but I was just wondering if anyone has any input on this. Also, any tips to help with hospital stay, things to watch for, etc. would be appreciated. Thanks.
