FYI, Surgery 6/23/14. Have some improvement in left hand and foot already. Going to take awhile to recover. Not sure if I can go back to work in Sept. even on light duty.

Wow Nancy!  That's fantastic you're already feeling the improvement in your left extremities.  I haven't been able to read much of your surgical report because I can't read sideways, especially with a fused neck!  Do you have much mobility in your neck?  It looks like you've got some significant hardware in there.

Cheers to you girl,
Jan
laminectomy + fusion, C2-T1

You had BIG surgery. How is your pain level now? Nancy, you are two months older than me. It shows your date of birth on the operative hospital note. I was born in September 1959. Those big surgeries like you had can take 6 months or even longer to recover sometimes. But, you got it over with. YEAH for getting the surgery behind you instead of in front of you! Hopefully you get better and better with some time! Take care.

Hi Nancy -

It sounds like you are doing well.  Keep up the positive thoughts and try to get back and active again.
I had surgery in late January and I still am not fully recovered and may never get back to the point I was at before the surgery.
BUT, I'm still active and mobile so keep at it.

Keep us informed on how you progress.  BrianS
