Has anyone had a spinal fusion - with good results? And how do you get a 2nd opinion?

Hello :)
I've spent ages reading the forums - didnt realise they existed until recently! I've been looking for experiences with Xolair, as I have my outpatient appointment at Papworth tomorrow and want to ask them if they will consider it for me. I have severe asthma, with allergies - which I may cope with

The morning after the day before
Yesterday was Wk 1 Day 1. Been preparing with loads of power walking, losing weight, but still got out of bed and thought: Hello calves, didn't expect that. But overall feeling good. I'm half way on my weight loss journey but still have another 1st 6lbs to go. The monkey I've got to get off

Ivig?
Hi, sorry for all the questions. I'm running ahead of myself but I really don't want to go down the steroid or immune supressent route. My friend said at the hospital she goes to some people with behcets go and have ivig which works well for them. I already have thin bones and am worried what steroids

What next?
Hi all, my husband (34yrs, very, very fit and healthy man with the exception of ITP) has had ITP for just over a year and a half. He has tried (in order) prednisolone, Ivig, menthol prednisolone, eltrombopag, romoplostim. None of which has worked. During this time his platelet counts has been as high

I have been admitted to hospital 6 times in the last 15 months. How do you cope when you are frightened by not knowing the next step?
15 months ago I had a platelet count of zero. I was put on prednisolone and my count went up then crashed to 2. I was then given IVIg but got meningitis and a retinal bleed and my platelets crashed to 3. I was then given rituximab and my count went up then crashed to 2 I then had a splenectomy and

By how much do normal platelet counts generally fluctuate?
My four year old son had ITP. He went from having a platelet count of 8000 in May to 295K in December after an IVig treatment. Our doctor officially declared him an acute case at that point and said he is done with ITP! However, he just had his platelet count done today as he suffered a minor injury

Things getting out of hand.com
the above should be a web site! It's how I feel at the moment. I was back with my ortho surgeonon Monday, and shocked to learn I will be in this boot cast mostly for another 3 months, and I thought he would be sending me back to work. What a surprise. I can cycle, but not walk too much, muffin tops

Severe asthma - Unconventional Treatment
Hi I have had severe asthma since infancy, but the past 1.5 years it has gotten much worse. I am on every asthma medication available, including at least 40 mg of prednisone a day, xolair, and ivig. my docs are now suggesting trying more aggresive treatments, as my pft's are slowly drifting down and

IV Immunoglobulin - any advice
Hi everyone, and a happy Easter to all hope you are enjoying the holidays. As title suggests I am after any advice from anyone who has had IVIG. My son had his first dose over last weekend - 2 lots of 16 hour infusions. He tolerated it well and apart from a sore cannula site he left hospital on Monday

Anyone had a spinal fusion operation?
I have to have a spinal fusion op of the lumbar region. I'm looking for any info on how to cope when coming out of hospital - showering, laying in bed, how active are you. Anything would be appreciated.

Anyone had spinal fusion?
I am going to have a spinal fusion operation (only a couple of vertebrae) and I would love to hear from anyone who has had this op. As I live on my own I am wondering how I will manage. How mobile will I be? How long before I am able to get out and about? Is there a time limit on not
