@annie1 I suggest you ask your bone specialist for an opinion. I don't know how to gage the risks or what your bone scores are, and only a specialist can interpret the information and advise you on your choices. I also don't know how much bone is removed. Surgeons have to gage the risk and they may be concerned not only for you, but for their reputations if something goes wrong. Are you treating the osteoporosis with any bone building drugs? I suggest contact your bone specialist asap.

I have an appointment with her next week actually, so I think I will have to postpone the surgery until I get these questions answered. I was on a yearly infusion of Reclast for 3 yrs but apparently they can't do more than three years. What does spine instability mean actually ?
