![]() I saw my spine surgeon today. I do have a fracture at L4. It is the end of the fusion and my body just could not take it. When L-2 was the end it also fractured.
My surgeon is not sure if he will extend the fusion to include L-5 or just remove some hardware and put some cement in L-4 . He is off on vacation for 3 weeks and my next apt is June 4th. He will then decide which surgery to do so i must research so i have my decision (if that is possible) I almost can't believe i am at it again in the OR. judy
