Guest guest Posted December 14, 2000 Report Share Posted December 14, 2000 Deb, I was at the doctors office when you called this morning. He took a couple of x rays to check the fusion and said that it looks like the fusion is failing. The screws have dark circles around them so it looks like they are working loose and that the bone is infected. He said a wheelchair wouldn't be right that I need to keep on walking but no other exercises. I have to have a blood test and an MRI so he can get a better picture of what is happening. I asked about going to Ft Lauderdale and he said he couldn't give me a medical reason but if I am in a lot of pain I shouldn't go. Now isn't being in a lot of pain a medical problem? I guess it will be up to doctor to decide. Anyway, he said to lead as normal a life as I can but he knows I am in agony so it will be hard.
