Post op care Spinal fusion surgery
 
Hi,

If anyone has had posterior lumbar interbody fusion surgery (PLIF for Spondylolisthesis L5/S1) can you tell me what type of personal assistance
was required for your recuperation at home after being discharged from the hospital? How long before you were able to do simple things around the home like getting up out of bed without assistance, putting something in the microwave, climb stairs, etc. My wife is curious how long of a "Family leave"
she should ask her employer for.

Thanks for your response,

PAP5
