Anterior surgery went well on 24th January but I was poorly after Posterior surgery on 7th Feb. What a nightmare, pain out of control, severe hallucinations, was unwell and needed a blood transfusion several days after op. Did not come home until 18th Feb. Spent 27 days in hospital and it felt like a lifetime. Was fused from T3 to S5. I wish I could be as active as others but I seem to spend most of my time in bed and sleeping. I can't sit up for more than 30-50 minutes and can only walk outside about a hundred yards before I come back and need another sleep!! My Dr says it's because I'm on a lot of pain meds but when I tried to reduce them yesterday it was just too hard. It has to get better doesn't it??
