i passed the two year mark on July 15th.
Its only been since a little over 18 months that my spine finally started to feel solid and more normal.

I knew the fusion would not take care of all the pain. But it took care of it well enough that, along with pain meds, i have something akin to a quality of life.

Don't push yourself too hard. As i (and probably a lot of us) have learned that this only causes a setback/flareup. Not worth it.

hugs,
