Hi everyone,
I've been reading a lot about Flatback Syndrome because I think I have it; however I believe I got it AFTER my revision surgery/adding new hardware surgery. A part of my Harrington Rods were removed to be able to install titanium ones from approximately T11-S1.
If anyone has any information, I'd greatly appreciate it. Like I said, I've read about people developing it before the revision and it's why they needed it but not in my case. In my case my lower curve had gotten progressively worse and needed it corrected since it was going so low.
I'm trying to concentrate on walking and standing correctly and my PT helps but I was just wondering if anyone developed it after their revision surgery and what they did to correct it.
