Hi all!! I've been so busy here at work and home that I haven't had a chance to post. I think on the surgery calender I'm scheduled for May 5th but my doc postponed it until May 12th. I know each and everyday I'm getting more and more nervous and frazzeled.Seems my mind and I body is going in 20 differant directions at the same time. Do you think I need to contact my local doc and get something to calm me down. I can't think, type or do anything without getting totally distracted. I also have a few questions I hope someone can help me with.
1. I have a spine kit, walker and raised toilet seat at home. Will I need anythng else,beside medication, to get through the rough times after surgery?
2. I live about 2 1/2 hours drive from the hospital. What can I do to make this ride more comfortable when I'm released from the mental ward..I mean hospital!!!?
3. Will I be able to go up and down stairs. I have 4 steps into my home so just wondering.
4. How long after surgery can I expect to start functioning on my own? Like going to the bathroom, cooking, showering and so forth?
Thanks in advance for any info,
Kat
