If..

The Goal of any surgery is total recovery, to come out better then you were before. Some heal quickly and feel immediate relief, for others the healing happens gradually. And its not until months or years later that you realize you don't hurt anymore. So the challenge after any surgery is to be patient. If you can make it through the first weeks and months, if you believe that the healing is possible, then you can get your life back. But that’s a big if.
