I'm just recovering from sheer laziness, so I can't even imagine how hard it is for you. I had a coworker that showed us an MRI of his neck and the spine looking like it pinched down to 1/3 the size - old injury from youth. His surgery went in from the front and he spent a year getting back to his old self and was pain free. Good luck to you

I prefer to think of them as unisex modified pushups, formerly girl pushups.

Well, I had my three month checkup and the Doc was very please. "You're fully protected." I'm cleared to begin any exercise I want, with pain as the regulator. Ok to ride bicycles and motos (BUT NO CRASHING

.)

Super pleased that I'm up to five pushups and starting to bench press 80 pounds without pain. I can see this will be a slow process but happy that the bone implants knit and the rods and screws and apparatus are all functioning properly.

Did the implants make you any nicer or faster though ?

“Fully protected “ ? My mind should not wander too far on the sabbath.
Good news but I’d better step up my push up regimen to keep ahead of you.

I can't really answer that, I'm now four people instead of one.
