      Hello all.

      Yep, the cold didn't affect the surgery. Two weeks post-op I guess I feel good. Just having a bit of trouble with the brace as it is quite painful against my incision so I'm taking that a bit slow. Seems like it all went well. Just wondering if what it looks like now is the final result? My x-rays shows a really good correction and my surgeon said the same but the physical difference is not as much as I imagined. Will this change?

      Thanks so much for all your help during the waiting process. It's great to be on the other side. Oh, and my butt is still in place it seems
