atrophying of muscles after surgery

[rohrer01]

Bring on the BMP.
I'm not even thinking about a full swing until I'm at least a year post op. I told my golfing friends today that I hope to walk along with them next summer and just drop a ball close to the green and then just chip and putt. It will kill me not to play, but I figure just being on the course with my friends and walking is better than nothing. Thanks, again, to all of you who give such good advice. It's such a scarey surgery, but it sure helps to talk to those of you who have already gone through it. I know it won't be easy. I keep trying to prepare myself and my husband!

Golfnut, go to the Scoliosis Research Society home page and read about their poster girl. She is a professional golfer. It might give you some inspiration.
