Hello,
I am happy to have found this site, thank you very much! Just reading threads has given me a lot of helpful info. I hope this is the right place to ask my questions.
My harrington rod was done when I was 15 and before physical therapy existed (or was too new-fangled for my surgeon) and now I want to make up for 30 years of lost time in getting my back muscles strong. I have started a low-impact aerobics class and there are muscles complaining! Are these muscle twinges going to lead to a stronger, healthy back or are they harbingers of damage and more pain to come?
I would appreciate hearing about other's experiences trying to get fit long after surgery. I would also appreciate any ideas on good questions to ask a doctor/physical therapist.
Thank you,
Ann
