Welcome!
I see you had a two part op with a 3 week separation. Wow! Mine was 2 days, and they only woke me up for 2 minutes after my anterior, then out for a week. I wonder why your Doc waited the 3 weeks? You must have been pretty corked down low like me. I sure would like to see your x-rays. Get a disc burned at the Doctors office, the quality is so much better.Mine is on my first thread.
You should start to feel better soon. My improvements seemed to be staged 20% bumps. My first 20% bump of improvement was at 1 month, then at 2 months, another 20% and so on. Your only 23 so instead of being a drugged kitty cat, you ought to return to being fierceliketiger here real soon! LOL
You might have noticed that I like to sidetrack and liven things up to keep things interesting, and add Mr Ed videos and things like that. It helps to have a positive attitude, and laugh through life.
One of the things you can do is get copies of your hospital reports from the hospital. Its neat to read through, and you will find info that they didn't tell you. I found out so many things from mine, 150 pages worth.
Keep walking and squatting!!! Use ski poles for walking, you don't want a dog to knock you down. No falling allowed now.

Just wondering what suggestions you might have on horses with smooth gaits? Of course I want a Cadillac, and he will have to be able to slide into home plate! LOL

I hope we helped answer your question as to limitations a year after surgery. Its the first couple of months that you have to worry about. Yes it is a difficult decision, and scary. It took me 33 years. Keep reading and posting and watch videos,
no not Mr Ed, scoliosis videos! LOL
