Hi Nanner,
It IS good News.
Your fusion is fine!!! Thats the most important thing just now. I know how
pain can be so distracting and your Doc has also increased your med strength.
When you have PT I am sure all will be well.
I just don't know about the collar debate, your Doc's over there seem to go for them in a big way.yet mine say's No collar,counter-productive.
I suppose when I am at your stage post op I will be better able to formulate a view.
Anyway, Nanner my friend. you take care.

to you and yours,
Davy
