O5 weeks post spinal fusion! Boy…this recovery is not for those who want quick results! I have to calibrate expectations: “Although progress is likely to be obvious at this stage, full recovery usually takes up to 8 months, with the bone continuing to evolve for 12 to 18 months. In some situations where a patient’s nerves have been seriously injured, it may take up to 1 to 2 years to see how well the nerves will recover after surgery.”
I start physical therapy next week, can’t wait for more guidance on getting strength back.
