Guest guest Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Hey everyone. I was reading all the talk about braces and I was just wondering. is practically begging Rand to put her in a brace after the surgery, but he keeps saying he does not use braces on his revision patients because it causes too much trauma. She has been trying to tell him that would not cause her trauma, but she is a klutz and if she screws up her fusion after surgery because she wanted a brace and he wouldnt give her one she is going to be very upset. She feels the brace would give her more of a comfort feeling because she knows she will be more stable with it and she has been in pain for so long that it will also help her to not bend and stretch when she shouldnt. What should we do? Has anyone else ran into this that had Dr Rand? Does anyone have any suggestions what we can do to convince him to go ahead and brace her since that is what she wants?
