Has anyone had vertebroplasty? Osteoporosis and fractured lumbar

@windyshores, @lebanon100 and all...It has been over 15 years since this procedure strengthened my back, allowed me to walk, freed me of all pain from T12.
I'd say 15 years is a very good outcome, with no drawbacks for me. It may be helping me for years to come. I have still almost no pain, just now if I move a wrong way, maybe 1x a week if that. No leakage. No negative results, no side effects.

@windyshores, and all...oops, hit send ...
I have several herniated vetobrae in lumbar and cervical. Now, those fellows are causing me trouble and don't know my spines future. we'll see. If they qualified before, they would have been cemented long ago.
Perhaps I am one for whom this procedure was a good solution. Perhaps you are not. I'm just relaying my actual experience, but remember our bodies and each injury is different, requires special attention. We must make decisions based on all the circumstances.
Be safe and be blessed. Elizabeth
