25% of my spine...

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!

      The Dolphins are the example of not tieing a team to an overrated QB who can't carry a team. They were so stacked and watched most of their talent go elsewhere so they could pay a mediocre and hurt starting QB too much money. They looked so good beating up bad teams at their peak and couldn't hang with any of the other playoff bound teams. I wonder if getting tossed aside will wake up their HC or if he continues to struggle elsewhere after his early success.  It would be funny if we weren't doing a weaker and dumber version of their build.

      Bryce vs Packers as a rookie

      It was even worse than that. The following game we were also shutout. Pretty sure.  That Green Bay game, then two goose eggs to end the year.  Followed by the wonderful first two games of 2024. So 4 straight stinkers.    I looked at the box of that GB game a few weeks ago. It was 10 points and around 100-110 yards passing in the first half.  He had two TDS the 4th quarter. Around or close to 200 yards passing in the second half. It was mostly a great 2nd half.    This year’s Dallas game, he played well or turnover free for 4 quarters, had no numbers really but I thought it was his best game. Along with the Atlanta game at the end of 2024. I think the agreement Bay game was at home too, it won’t be this time.  I have to root for him to show something more in these last games  because I think they are going to keep him - so he really needs to be better.
