Direct Pars Repair

Has anyone had a direct repair procedure on their pars fracture? I’m finding it hard to find any solid information on recovery and outlook for the future after having the surgery. Surgeon said it was possible to do bilateral para defect repair.

Background: L5-S1: Dynamic grade 1 anterolisthesis of L5 on S1 with bilateral pars defects. Moderate-severe proximal right and lesser left neuroforaminal stenosis, noting combination of inferior pedicular surface, posterior cortical margin/disc, and arthropathic facet
variable slight contact with the exiting right and slight disc contact with the exiting left L5 nerve roots.

Any information is helpful. Thank you!

Fevers at Night

Hello, I have been sick for seven days. Started off with bodyaches, chills and a lot of sinus pressure and a fever. Initially, I thought the fever broke within 24 hours and was just dealing with a lot of sinus pressure for three days. But then after three days of sinus pressure, my fever came back at night. Went to urgent care and got prescribed Augmentin and started feeling better. But 72 hours of being on Augmentin, I started to get fever, chills, and body aches last night. Anytime I’ve gotten a fever throughout this. It’s only been at night and I feel relatively back to normal now . Today, my PCP ended up changing my antibiotic to a Z-Pak. I no longer have any congestion and don’t feel a lot of pressure in my face, but she said that my sinuses still look very inflamed. I am wondering if this is just a viral infection? And if if so, has anyone else experienced only having fevers at night and they come and go from a viral infection?
