“TOPS has had a tremendously positive impact on my life. I was really struggling physically and mentally. The pain in my lower back and back of my legs, along with my foot going numb, was getting so bad that I found my daily activities frustrating and difficult to power through.
I have always been a very active and strong woman. I have a physically demanding job as well as an avid skier and tennis player. Prior, I was physically fit, weight training and walking several miles a day. Since all these activities were becoming so difficult, I was feeling frustrated and depressed. When the approval came through, I had tears of joy.
Once recovery started and the surgical pain lessened, I knew I was going to be OK! After 6 weeks, my surgeon, family and friends said how much better I looked and sounded. I am now 8 months post-op & doing very well! I went back to tennis, weight training, and I can do my job and daily activities.”
