@anonymous106697 Did any doctor want you to go on medicine to increase your bone mass. I am on Tymlos, which is an injection with a very small needle into my stomach. I have to give myself injections every day. May bones are soft, found out from the 9 hour surgery on June 9th. It was a fusion from T-10 to my pelvis. The big problems was in my L-4, L-5 and S1 where I had severe pinched nerves or (stenosis) My surgeon told my husband that my bones for soft, but not as soft as her expected and told him I must have been in a lot of pain.
Have you seen a good surgeon that treats your problem. My surgeon at Mayo clinic in Rochester, MN was great and knew how to do my surgery. He had many qualifications. I don't know where you live or if you could get referred to a Spine Center. But they would need to be checked out, not all of the have good surgeons for spine issues.
Before my surgery I did everything I could I started out with a trainer at the Y and ended up with an epidural in my spine, I tried Yoga and swimming with the same results, I did PT and had many epidurals. Had an ablation that worked for awhile, but the pain came back so that's when I knew I needed surgery. My primary care doctor and pain doctor at Mayo said I needed the surgery. I'm 68 and I was afraid if I didn't have the surgery it would just get worse and I was right. Best wishes to you. I hope this helps.
