@acmuceus I'm sorry to hear about your husband's spine condition, and I hope he will have a solution in the future. Does he have osteoporosis? Bone density and quality is always a consideration when spine surgery is considered. Has your husband been seen by an expert for bone quality such as an endocrinologist?

yes he has osteoporosis, age is the issue and having done a lot of heavy work over many years. bone density scan is definitely in the plans going forward

no he has not seen an endocrinologist , but we should definitely check on his osteoporosis before surgery, we will ask the question after the Dr looks at the 2 X-rays he ordered .
thank you for your input
