I have an appointment on Thursday and I'm gonna find out what they did and ask them to get an xray so I can see it.
I'm excited to see what the hell happened to me.
Main thing is that ALL my back symptoms are 100% gone. I never even remotely imagined that'd happen.

Great news about the back pain my firs two days after the surgery were bad with pain then it went away and I too have been feeling great this was from March for me. I didn't have a fusion but its good to hear that with a competent surgeon how quickly you recover. but no matter what you had done the bottom line is you can resume a relatively regular lifestyle now
