So sorry that you are having a difficlt time . So next Tuesday is my surgery date and dr said day of surgery or next day I will have to be out of bed walking and I will need to go to a rehablilatation center for I haven't been able to walk for months . I currently walk with a walker . I can walk on my own but not far and my back feels so out of balance or should i say the mechanism feels messed up . Thank you for your comment.
