Welcome to Connect, @barbiej.

I'm tagging @martishka, @lesleighjarrett, @ladyjane85, @hopeful33250 and @bonniecanby who have all posted about compression fractures and can hopefully provide some advice and support! @martishka I believe had considered vertebroplasty.

Also, here are two other threads on Connect that you may want to check out:

Compression Fracture- https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/pain-from-compression-fracture-of-vertebrae-w-osteoporosis/

Barbie, what long-term concerns do you anticipate or are concerned about?
