It has been quite some time since I have posted here. I am doing great. Post op 9 months now.

Excellent posture while standing, and supporting your head/neck/shoulders while resting will help alleviate the rest of the back pain. You look great in your picture!

Keep up with the pain medication for a while. No need to be uncomfortable. The most important tasks are breathing exercises and walking. Best wishes Bethany!

Hi Bethany. ..glad your are in the road to recovery.
You should have pain killer for at least 1 month. Or a litter more ...after a month start lower the doss.
That will help you to sleep well.
Take it easy.

My worse part was the breathing tube removal! I will never forget that... But those drainage tubes run a close second. Did feel good after they were out. Hoping you continue to feel stronger everyday!
