Hi All,
I recently spoke with a patient referral who is fused from T10 to L4. She told me that she can no longer get in and out of a car and has had to switch to a SUV. Is this another item to put on your checklist of things to do beforehand? Swap your sedan for a SUV? I drive a 4-passenger mid-size car and will require a long fusion to the sacrum. For those of you with long fusions, is it impossible to get in and out of a car after surgery?
Thanks for any replies.
Chris
