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!

      I miss many of the OGs like @ladypanther Zob had a bad off week and came in here to do some mopping and a couple of the 10 year 15k post account he just banned over a silly disagreement, just odd behavior from Zob. A Pessimal deal happened with Lady and others. I tired to find a new forum and could not get around the signing up part...same for discord. Its not perfect here by any means, but I still feel welcomed here for the most part and this place does have the most freedom. I hate how the right vs left BS nearly cooked this place, I still believe in removing the litterbox, toxic as hell and lollolols @ anyone coming into a team forum to talk about pointless politics of the uni party turds.  @Bear Hands you saved this place with your activity. It helped offset the lost of OGs and the knowledgeable that leftd.    It would help for new members and I do get the spammers deals, just got to mod them away and hope opening the door brings in fresh blood.

      That seems about right. No higher than that for a bottom third qb with two years left, including one expensive year. He played well enough last year to show he is startable. It depends on whether other teams thought he has any upside left and whether he's been hindered by coaching and surrounding cast. I think most teams would answer no, but if they thought he could step it up just a little I could see trading a fourth or fifth for a bridge guy/top tier backup.
