OS Finally Discuss Revision

[MsSplenda56]

Hello Everyone,

I was two years post-op on November 8; I was seen by my OS today and finally he is talking revision. I am not ready! He will keep me comfortable until I decide I am ready. I pray I make it to March 3, 2010 at which time I will retire after 34 years of federal service. I can recover without the stress of thinking about returning to work.

It’s been a painful two years…


Happy Monday

Yes, my doctor is a revision specialist... I do not see the OS that perform the initial surgery nor am I angry with him; he's in the business to help not hurt. Only God knows what happened here... Judy everytime I post you make sure to remind me to obtain a revision specialist. I have one of the BEST... Thanks for your concern...

MsSplenda....it sounds like you are making a very wise decision to have the surgery following your retirement. Congratulations on such a long career in Civil Service! I had 30 years....trust me, retirement is fabulous! You'll love it once you get through the surgery and hopefully uneventful recovery period.
