Hi Kathy @martinkda, Welcome to Connect. @contentandwell, @hosta, and @kandc317 and mentioned having Kyphoplasty surgery. @jenniferhunter may also have some thoughts to share on the topic. Here's some information on the procedure that may be helpful.

I had Kyphoplasty in June 2020. This was done by Southeast Orthopedics' Dr. Moore and it was a great success.
