Skiing/surfing after double fusion

[wraspondy]

I had spinal fusion l5/s1 a few years ago and got back to moderate skiing and surfing. Now my l4/5 is toast and they want to fuse it. Anyone out there still skiing or surfing after a fusion revision? Also, anyone out there had a three level fusion or disc replacement in the lumbar spine and still going hard. Need some glimer of hope.

Yes there is definitely hope. I don't know your specifics, but I broke my c6-c7 skiing. They are now fused with some titanium rods and screws. It healed up great. I was able to attend the straightline camp less than 9 months later and now 3 years later I feel one hundo. Hang in there. Work hard. Do you physical therapy. Envision that if you are dedicated enough, that you could come back stronger and smarter than ever.
