Hi my spine is really messed up . I just posted about my upcoming surgery in hopes of getting some type of alignment back. My original surgery said there was nothing else that could be done. so after 2 years of more and more hunched over position. I looked for a surgeon who does deformity surgery. I found one . My spine is now in the shape of a C, the lumbar area curving in the wrong direction . I would get lots of opinions. I am going to be financially in bad , bad shape after this surgery. I had to go on Obamacare and not many docs in Ca accept it. I figure from this first surgery I will be paying 7 doctors and I am only sure one of them takes my insurance. If you can fight the decision that is great, but is there a statute of limitations on this? Anyway good luck on getting any pain relief
Judy
