Hi everyone- My surgery was Dec 12 with Dr. Boachie, I got home yesterday. Thanks to all for your prayers! Everything went fine, now I just have to not get impatient with not feeling "normal" yet. I know it will take awhile. My stomach is real distended- swollen-that is the most uncomfortable for me right now. I had 3 curves- the worst was 100-and a terrible kyphosis that caused a big hump- the hump is completely gone-amazing! I still have a 70 deg curve but as Dr. B. says it is "hidden". You would never know I had a curve at all. He said my spine was completely rotated around (A 180 twist) and he had to "unravel" it. It was 11 hours but he did both posterior and anterior the same day. I am gratelful for a succcessful outcome, even though it has been rough at times. Did anyone else have the swollen stomach? How long does it take to go down? I look pregnant. He was not concerned but I feel so uncomfortable. Thanks again all for your support-
