Hello,
I am new to the forum and wanted to know if anyone has had surgery with Dr. Neuwirth. I recently saw him as a second opinion and advised that I have surgery as well. I have a right dorsolumbar cuve. It is currently at 39 degrees and has an apex at T7. He wanted to fuse 4-5 vertebrae in the thoracic region through a anterior approach.
Basically, I wanted to know if anyone else has the same curve, if anyone has seen him and your opinion on my situation. I am 24 years old and experience minimal mid and lower back pain that feels muscle related, but I suppose the muscles surrounding the curve.
Best,
Lori
