alright so a lot of things have happened since my last post and I am kicking myself for not keeping this thing updated. It really helps to write things down.
I flew back out to South Carolina to see what the next steps were going to be and since this surgery didn't improve a majority of my symptoms with physical therapy it was time to schedule my fusion surgery. I had my fusion surgery about 6 in a half weeks ago and it has been a beast to recover from, Again I was in a lot of pain in the hospital, they figured out it was a migraine with surgery and had me on caffeine tablets. It helped a ton! It was really weird.
Narcotics are also awful... I am very sensitive to most and I was put on a pretty strong one. I tried going cold turkey and that made me end up back in the hospital....that is a long story and I am not sure, I want to write here. I am still debating, because what if it might help someone else who is struggling.
As for healing from my fusion, I can tell many differences! I am not far a long in my recovery, but my arm pain has improved a lot, and also my black outs have improved a ton too, so here is to hoping I can continue recovering.
