25% of my spine...


Jackofalltrades

Recommended Posts

Is to be fused on Weds the 13th. Fusing T-3 thru T-11, which is also 75% of my thoracic spine. Not looking forward to the procedure, but I have high hopes for the long term prognosis.

Anyone have any experience with fusion? I'm looking for tips, wisdom or general heads up as I try to prepare for this mentally and physically.

Unfortunately, this crap will likely keep my from my annual journey to Spartanburg for TC- provided a CBA is done in time, which is my biggest regret at this time.

Prayers are also welcome.

look to find a very knowledgeable massage therapist.. I expect if you're anything like my dad, you're back will need adjusted from time to time.. maybe even every week in the beginning..

do yourself a favor and never pick up anything heavy (or over 15lbs) again..

Damn. Sorry to hear that. I had to decide between fusion and lots of physical therapy plus an obtrusive back brace for six months after having compression fractures to T3-T8 ranging between 25% and 40%. I chose the brace. I'm not sure how that's going to work out for me in the long-term. I hope your recovery is as quick and painless as possible. If you don't have a Netflix subscription, get one now!

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
