Well it pays to talk to the man above because I have been the recipient of yet another miracle! I was nervous about my drs appointment today because I continued to do things after the surgery that I shouldnt have such as smoke (could have affected the fusion taking hold etc) but I got a good report today and I am happy! Took away some of my restrictions allowing me to do more around here but also kept some restrictions in place such as still no travel, no running sweeper etc - said the pain wont be gone completely gone for a long time to come (could be a yr or more) BUT it will diminish in strength and length of time within a few months. I am also now on the patch to help me quit smoking cause its a battle i wish on no one!! lol - If the fusion wouldnt have taken place I would have been back in surgery - if I dont stay of the cigs for at least 6 months the fusion will diminish and I will be back for another one within 2-3 years and GOD knows thats the last thing I want! AND the best thing is I dont have to use that dang walker anymore!! woohoo!!!! I am one happy momma today!
