RE: am I wrong for feeling this way?
Did an Ortho Surgen do your fusion? Just curious! My wife had a fusion on the 10th of Sept and she is back to doing almost everything she used to. She is undergoing another during the summer b/c she has Pars Defect. A Neuro Surgeon done hers and that may be the difference. Good luck with your recovery, we will be praying for your speedy recovery. We are blessed that hers went as well as it did.
My wife wants to know what level you had to be fused at?
