My journey with a T11 to L4 spinal fusion - 40 degree scoliosis curve

Posted by sherrym25 @sherrym25, Nov 7, 2024

Hi, I am scheduled for an L4 to T11 spinal fusion for my 40 degree scoliosis curve on December 11 2024.

Looking for feedback or advice for recovery from anyone who has had a similar surgery!!

I very active, with an “almost” teenager, and I ride horses.

Thank you!!

I could walk a quarter mile on an indoor track and stand less than 2 minutes. I hope to se improvement.
I quit having Shetland Sheepdogs about 6 years ago when my last one died. There is hope for the future!
