Scoliosis struggle #297
Since surgery, my nerves have started stinging at random times throughout the day… I dont know if that’s just a part of healing and it’ll go away or if its here to stay.

Does anyone have any suggestions of keeping busy and sane while recovering? I am losing my mind not being able to do anything. All i want is to fast forward time to when I don’t have physical restrictions.

I just choked on water for the first time since surgery and oh my gosh that hurt
Scoliosis struggle #294
I haven’t been able to sleep on a bed since surgery and I’m getting real tired of sleeping on the couch. I don’t understand why I can sleep on the couch, but not on a bed…
These are my xrays compared to what my back was like pre fusion! He got it straighter than what I was expecting and I am so happy with it!
Tomorrow is my 3 month check up and I will finally get an xray!
Feeling very alone and overwhelmed. The upcoming surgery, the lengthy recovery from surgery, finances and sobriety (which isn’t going so well) has me feeling exhausted. I have very supportive friends but I still feel very alone in my worries. I’m sure everything will be fine and there is really no point in stressing when I could be hit by a bus tomorrow. But I’m still stressing…and now about getting hit by a bus.

Good news! I am scheduled for surgery February 23rd. I will be having anterior/posterior Lumbar fusion. This will greatly ease the pain that I have from the previous spinal instrumentation and fusion surgery that I had for my scoliosis 20+ years ago. It will be a lengthy recovery but I am ready to get my life back!!
