Hi Sherry, Thanks for taking the time to share your journey. Very helpful for what to expect with my similar surgery! I am happy to hear your Doc said surgery went well and the tweaks were made in medications to be able to manage the pain better!!! What hospital are you in that you are flying home? Sounds like you have a great medical team and loving support from your sis! Hope your flight isn't too long! Tamra

Hi Tamra, it was definitely wonderful to hear my surgeon say that it went well!! Even though the minimally invasive approach was a lot more work for him, we knew that it would be much better for me in the long run for the healing process. It’s also been so great to have my records and labs, etc., available immediately on my patient profile online. I was able to see pictures of x-rays of my back that they took during the surgery.
I had my surgery at the Phoenix Mayo Clinic. I am going to provide another general update because a few things have changed regarding my timeline to return home.😊
