    That is great news. We need more positive comments. Patience comes to those who wait. I am going in for my 2nd op in 2 weeks. Happy with my first op and rearing for part 2!

      How long did you wait between fusions. I'm going on 5 weeks post op, and would like to get the other out the way

    It is great that you are recovering fast. I feel happy for you. But be careful. Maybe you should wait a bit more to wear heels or going for a run? Why not asking your consultant's advice or physiotherapist's advice first? 

    All the best
