Hi,
Just like to give an update for those who are keeping track of my progress....Four week recovery goes like this...still waking up in the middle of the night LOL (3;30 now) to either have a snack , bathroom stop and take a pain med....I have been napping less...walking around the house more...I have been able to bend to the floor to pick up items..carefully....trying to cook in small and simple meals...driving to local store but not comfortable doing it.....I have a limp on my right hip, I have a right downward shift when walking...I keep reminding myself to stand straight........When repositioning myself from sitting or standing...very stiff and painful to do....I have burning pain on the left hip...my back is numb all the way down.......some stiches are still poping out of the closed incision...no more sherring shoulder pain...easier to type and needlepoint....Physcial therapy starts this week..will be working on the arms and neck so that driving is more comfortable...When I put my excercise clothes and sneakers on, I feel like I have so much more stamina .....Dr.'s appoinment this week...hopefully will answer more questions and will find out new cobb measurements!!
