Thanks for the support, Ann.
It's scheduled for next Friday, but I'm going to see if can be the following Friday, so I'll have a meeting with my neurologist first.
I'm very confused. The surgeons all hate the way my spine looks, with no fusion and loose screws, instability. But I'm feeling "relatively" comfortable. I mean there's never a day that I don't think about my back, how it's doing, how to protect it; I'm scared of falling or getting pushed, but again, relatively stable in terms of pain, not taking pain meds except unusual days. I'm limited in activities but I've begun to accept that.
