I followed up with my surgeon, he has recommended PT 4 weeks. Then removal of hardware. My hardware is directly under the skin and hits many nerves that is causing my pain according to him.

Would it be a good idea to also see a neurologist since the surgeon said the hardware 'hits many nerves' just in case the neurologist has ideas about how the removal process can be negotiated? Maybe it's a fairly simple operation and a neurologist would be reassuring as well.
