Scholiosis Surgery - Spinal Fusion?
I had the rods put in about 10 years ago. Im now 23, with a 5 year old and I gained about 50 lbs from my pregnancy also. I am in so much pain daily! I have Sciatica, arthritis and Degenerative discs now from this!
I take about 60 percocets weekly for pain. And My doctor told me a *SPINAL FUSION* might help.
My question is, does anybody have this? Anybody have a *SPINAL FUSION*? I hear you cant have kids after or ned down.
Is there a surgery I can have for the sciatica? Or Pain? (I had the needles - nerve blocks they didnt work).
Is there something else I can do?
Answers:
I am sorry for you as what you are suffering and methods of pain relief are also not very effective for you. Your first priority should be to have a better, pain-free life. I think you go with the doctors' advice. I am sorry to tell you this, but having another child should not be your concern just now with so many problems. And anyway, you may discuss this with your doc, who will be the best person to tell you.
Wish you all the best!
I had a spinal fusion at the age of 3. I was never told I could not have kids because of the surgery or rods. If you have scoliosis then I would definitely have the surgery.
