Had my 3 week follow up appointment today. Family...

Had my 3 week follow up appointment today. Family saw me for the first time yesterday and everyone was speechless. My recover hay (knock on wood) been uneventful aside from some residual swelling and aches, which are easily manageable now. I completely underestimated the impact this would have on my self-esteem. If I had known, I would have done it years ago. Each day things are getting easier, building up stamina, walking straighter, etc.

Went shopping for the first time since surgery and was down about 3 pant sizes and one dress size (broad shoulders... what can you do! lol). I'm down a total of about 17 lbs (10-11 from surgery, rest from loss of appetite for first 2 weeks following surgery). So happy I made this decision. No regrets whatsoever - picked a great doctor and got a great result! Good luck to everyone out there taking this journey - it's truly amazing on the other side :)

Tomorrow is 2 weeks post op and first day back to work. I'm nervous as I'm struggling to stand straight and can't walk for long spurts without back pain. I don't want to over do it so I may only make it half a day. Rush me luck!

Day 7 post op - if you can survive the first week...

Day 7 post op - if you can survive the first week then the rest I think is going to be a breeze. Honestly my worst pain is coming from my lower back from the hunching. The rest of it is pretty manageable. I did go through a couple of very blue days - like what did I get myself into? Why did I do this to myself? But each day gets better. Stay strong and know you are brave and the results will be worth it in the end!

Dr. Darrow and Helen are just fantastic. Excellent nurses in the surgery center for the overnight stay as well. Professional, courteous, and very easy to talk to. Super supportive before and after surgery. I can't say enough good things. I can say sincerely that Dr. Darrow has changed my life in more ways than I can count. Everyone has noticed a change in me and not just physically. So happy with the results, he did an absolutely fantastic job. I highly recommend Dr. Darrow if you want a highly capable, caring physician with excellent bedside manor and excellent support staff!!!
