Hi, my name is Suzy and I'm new to this forum. I have a 60 * curve, lower vertabraes are shot L1-5. I'm presently doing a lot of research and speaking with several surgeons. Have seen Wm Horton in Atlanta and Keith Osborne, Alan Villavicencio in Boulder, CO and Andrew Casden In NY. Does anybody know any of these docs?
I am a 50 year old, up to Labor Day!, very active person doing yoga, pilates, hiking, tennis and skiing. I have been crippled with excrutiating nerve pain since Sept 6. I know that it's no longer "if" I have the surgery but when. I know I can't continue to live in this pain. I have had 3 epidurals and next are facet joint blocks.
Has anybody had this surgery? I will need scoliosis, spinal stenosis (up to 6 vertabrae fused), degenerative disk disease and bulging disks, also some arthritis.
