L5-S1 fuse time

Hello everyone!

29 old year male here.

I did a lumbar spinefusion with rods and screws in beginning of April this year. (L5-S1)

Iam always abit sceptic and wanted to do an CT about 6 months after the surgery to see how it looks.

Surgeon says everything looks fine, no loose screws. Alittle note is that one screw in L5 penetrates Kortikalis by 1cm, but should be ok (is it?)

She could also not see any fusion on the CT yet, but gives me green light to increase the rehab training.

So my quiestion is - How long should it take until a bonefuse shows in CT? I really want to know its done, before putting more pressure on it.

I only have some kind of pain when Ive been laying down on like the couch etc for a few mins. But notthing huge. Other than that, nothing really.

Best regards
