Susan, it took months for my belly to go down, and the incision side of my belly is exactly as you describe, hard like a muscle. It is also numb but painful -- hard to describe. Sometimes it itches inside but of course I can't scratch numb skin! It's very weird. From what I hear, that can take a year or more to feel more normal again.
Trulyaries, I feel badly that you are facing yet another surgery. But the anterior approach will be worth it if it finally stabilizes your spine!!
