Everyone start to finishes I’m trusting that the pain I’m having in back and neck k is apart of the healing process as I was told, but it almost feels like a plate or screw is snagging on something inside. I know that’s not true. It’s just the feeling I have and by the end of the day it feels like I’ve been standing on concrete all day, my whole back aches is that part of my spine because my posture is better I don’t know. I do know I was released to go back to work as usual and at 61 it’s not like I’m running a marathon. I’m just doing day-to-day task. I’m also a little concerned that the scar and what feels like scar tissue underneath will never go down. My surgery was On April 15 today is June 30

I’m a repeat offender as Dr. Brkaric has operated on me multiple times. He’s the best. From the first visit, MRI, results, scheduling, surgery and follow up, everyone is top notch and first class. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to get me back to being healthy.
