From Rita T
I have appt with my surgeon next week. Remember I had 2 rods replaced that were broken two years ago. After an extreme lengthy surgery, I thought everything goin ok then started having excruciating pain. I’m even experiencing some breathing problems. All this while trying to work full time. I fear my rods are broken again. Is it normal to have breathing problems with this? I’m quite worried!
