Thank you for your message and intellectually I know you're right. I'm just coming from an emotional place. I'm anxious for my follow-up appointment with my surgeon. When he tells me everything looks good I will definitely feel much more positive about all of it. Part of my problem is dealing with the pain coming from my hip and knowing that I'm facing 6 more months of chronic pain.
Yes, I'm working on having a more positive attitude - a good thing for healing.
Best.

Ahhh - That's the spirit maddiemae! Yes - I cannot imagine adding hip surgery on top of your spinal work - but stay focused on how good things will be when all that's in your rear view mirror!!! You got this.
