Hi @kjs1964, allow me to bring in other members who have had or considered having vertebroplasty, like @richcolleen @martishka @psprice77 @martinkda who can share their experiences and decision making with you.

KJS, did you have an appointment today? What did you decide?

Good Morning! I have osteoporosis and with chemo have fractured 5 and broke one vertebrae. The broken one they did Vertebroplasty (cement) and had to stay on bed as much as I could for 2 days. .Pain Clinic couldn’t get me in for 2 months. Since than it shows on my scans as healed. Surgery was a piece of cake.
Good luck! Colleen
