Hey Everyone,
I'm scheduled for surgery in a few weeks and I'm so scared. I'm scared I am opening up a can of worms, like a life time of surgeries to fix or re align or whatever. I've never had a surgery a day in my life and I'm not in much pain right now. I feel like I've read a lot of posts on this forum and many people have had multiple surgeries. I'm 25, experience some back stiffness and I stretch and "pop" my back a lot, but I am very active and I'm so scared I'm going to be in so much pain and not going to do all of the things I like to do, especially softball and dance ever again. Can you really go back to softball and pilates and dance with rods in your back??
Any 20 somethings out there with some inspiring stories?? I need to know that my life isn't going to be ruined. I know that in all seriousness, I will probably be worse off if I don't get the surgery but I am so scared that I am going to lose so much of my life by having the surgery.
I am probably just freaking myself out but if anyone wants to share their positive recoveries I would love to hear about them.
Thanks so much
