Follow up - 6 months

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I had my follow up today with Glazer. I was very glad to hear

everything is healing and fusing properly. I almost refused to

believe him based on the movement I have been feeling in my back. He

checked and rechecked the screws, hooks, fusions and spacers and

insisted all was well. He stated I most likely was experiencing

movement in the muscle wall. He said it was all settling in nicely.

I am almost standing completely straight but I still have a slight

lean forward. I told him about the posture therapist I had been

seeing and the muscle groups she was pinpointing on my right side

for extra exercising in the pool. He thought that was exactly what I

needed was a little more strength in the right side to hold that

erect position. He stated that I had come miles and was very

impressed. I told him how I was feeling and experiencing and he said

they were very valid points and it is not all in my head. He stated

again that nerves heal ever so slowly and to have more patience. I

see him again in six months. He surprised me and gave me a hug and a

kiss on the cheek when I left. My hunny was there and is now full of

hope that all this residual nerve stuff will clear up in the future.

I too, have some hope. I just hope I can keep hoping
