@jc76 Can you please tell me a bit more about the back brace with the electrical stimulation? I need to have a fusion, but have been told by one surgeon that it could not be done because of my osteoporosis. I was told by another surgeon that I could have it done because the arthritis in my spine is such that it has laid down extra bone that would hold pins/screws. That sounds kind of dicey to me. If there is a brace that will help bone growth, I would love to know what it is called so I can ask my doctor about it. Thanks for any help you can give!
