What makes me to start writing this blog, I questioned myself? Every body in this world are searching for something and running behind a target. Certainly, me either.. But I still don't know where I am going and what I am following for? Had this been not happened if I wouldn't fall sick! Yes, I am writing, searching & literally jobless because I am not well. What happened to me.. A short review of past three months in my life!
The first phase of this anecdote happened at Oxford, UK. An urge to submit my masters dissertation last year, I had started to feel my back ache! But I didn't take it up so serious. Later the pain aggravated as the days went by. Soon after I finished my thesis, a great sign of relieve made me so happy. This excitement of finishing masters at foreign university preoccupied my mind with full of joy and exultation which concealed the pain enormously. Subsequently, I started off my work to get post study work visa and to Job. Apparently, my visa got extended along with my pain exceedingly.
This is the second phase of unwished, bitter and hard experience which I never want to go through or never wish to remember! This happened in India, at my home town Trichy. First I've been wrongly diagnosed by a rhematologist, orthologist and a general physician. This has taken up almost all my valuable vacation leaving me only a quarter of time to enjoy, still not properly diagnosed what crazy really happening on my back! At last consulted a Neurologist who certainly diagnosed the real problem asked me to go for a biopsy. Unfortunately, biopsy results didn't come out well. Now I've been advised to go for a surgery to rule out other possibilities which makes pragmatic difficulties in treating my problem.
As per the doctor's advise and with god's grace, I've undergone an open back surgery at T5 para vertebral bone in the spinal juncture which required about 10-12 inch cut in my back for them to remove a damaged bone and replace it with other rib bone (so called "grafting") which is unmistakebly tightened by screwing up from the spinal cord. WOW!!! now I am an Iron man tooooo!!!! But one silly doubt, wouldn't it be a problem walking every where with a screw and asked to cross the bomb detector in the airport ;0) ?!?!?!
I've been given a strong anesthesia which made me to go sleep for about 5 hours, where the operation has taken about four and half hours! So, I didn't feel any pain during the surgery. Ironically, the post surgery observations were very painful than before! Finally, after a month of surgery now I've been asked to do some basic exercises and mobility which allows me to start pen down a blog to push my long day! Still I am not allowed to sit for long time which hurts my back! Even this post I've completed in only by three sittings!!! Hope to kick start a good life soon!!!
