    Hello! I recently had spinal fusion surgery on Jan 4, 2006. My doctor hasn't mentioned this yet and I am concerned and curious. I am a married woman and wondering when it is ok to start having sex again? I'm almost 2 months post-op and still having a tough time just getting around so I just don't know when it is ok. And I'm scared that I might hurt my back if it's too soon.

    Any advice is much appreciated!

      Hi Shelly...

      I agree with Linda... it's best to check with your surgeon. As a general guideline, I have a webpage about resuming activities after scoliosis surgery:
