Default Anterior-Posterior Approach For Scoliosis

Hi;
Just wondering if anyone has had their scoliosis corrected using the anterior-posterior approach?
I am considering this surgery, and although my ortho doc is one of the best in So. Calif, he has not gone into detail about what will happen after surgery.
I have had many other ortho surgeries, but I am not a young kid anymore (56) and a two day surgery scares me to death.
I would like to hear about outcomes from this surgery good or bad, as well as what I can expect for the recovery period.
If any replies are too long for this forum, please feel free to e-mail me at dwiggietoo@cox.net.
I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has gone through this surgery.
Thank you.
