It's been 7 weeks since the surgery and all is well. At 6 weeks they announced the xrays were "perfect" and removed the Morphine like patch. Unfortunatley, without asking, Jenn also stopped taking all the other drugs kaiser had perscribed and spent 4 days in great distress. With that all out of the way she is completely drug free and on to Physical Therapy and rebuilding her strength. So far her back pain levels have gone from a norm of 7 out of 10 on the pain scale to a 2, and many hours to ZERO! She is thrilled with the decision to have the surgery and has lots of feedback for Kaiser on pre-op and post-op intructions :) The Doctor expects to allow her to go back to work April 13th, Jenn is thinking a bit sooner.
Thanks so much for all the good thoughts and prayers!
