Hi and WELCOME!!

i'm glad you found us! There is a wealth of information here, and I'm sure you'll find what you need.
Why not join us on the Spinal Disorders forum? At the bottom, you'll see "forum jump." Just click on that and you'll see a list of topics -- click on spinal disorders, and join us there. There are great people there, who can help you with your questions.
I've had 2 open spinal surgeries plus a spinal cord stimulator implant & removal, but I haven't had fusion. Most of the others on Spinal disorders have had fusion. So I'm sure you'll get the info that you need.
I wish you the very best! God bless and hope to see you there. Hugs, Lee
