I'm rooting and praying for you too Mark. That thoracic and rib pain is horrible. Probably more so that people don't think it can happen and the thoracic spine is so stable. bla bla bla...........
What is an MVA if seen it on a few histories and am wondering.,

I used to have to lay flat on my back to get the thoracic pain to a level that i could go on walking, Embarrassed my kids a lot one summer at the airport when it hit and i headed for a out of the way wall to lay down at.k

I would take off running up a mountain if i could too . Not sure it caused any of this, but may have contributed. I already told my hip surgeon ,who is awesome that if it just meant replacing my hip a few years earlier i would run a few days per week. Now I think for the first time my spine surgeon would say no to running, but i may ask him just for kicks. That was my passion and stress reducer . Especially here in Southern California in the mountains.
