Just saw my surgeon.......

Hi Everyone,
Just come back from seeing my specialist and im having surgery Mon 7th May 2007. In the mean time i have to get a MRI done to check my spinal cord cause i do have Congenital malformations in the thoracic part of my spine there checking for tethered spinal cord......
Also i have to get a CT scan on my L1,2 &3 vertabres to check the size of my pedicles. He also checked my bending xrays and he said he can only straighten my top curve from 60 to 40 degrees and my lumbar curve will be reduced to around 0 to 5 degrees, which im really happy about. I was told i would need to wear a brace after surgery but today he told me i won't need to wear one but as long as i be careful there shouldn't be a problem. (i think he trusts me not too be stupid). Well all i have to do now is wait till Jan 15th 2007 too get these scans over and done with hopefully all goes well and nothing else is wrong with me.
Fingers crossed!!!!!!!
