Hi everyone!
I'm new to posting on this forum although I read many of the posts before having my operation 13 days ago. I got home from hospital 4 days ago. I had my surgery in the UK with Mr Gibson at Stanmore, London. I'm 22 and had two curves, one was 30 and the other 55, and had posterior surgery. I'm back home now and am really worried I'm going to damage my rods somehow! I'm almost worried I'm recovering too quickly as apart from the ongoing slight pain, which doesn't bother me too much (sometimes I forget to take painkillers) I feel fine. Is it wise to try and get back to normal as soon as possible or is it best to just take it slowly, even if you feel like you can do more? The district nurse came round today to remove my dressing but my scar hasn't healed so she just changed it, and I'm worried it's because I'm moving around too much. Did anyone else feel the same so soon after surgery?
Merry Christmas to all!
