@ginginrummy Thank you so much! I worked in university research for a neuro-anatomist many years ago, and added to that I have my own experience with spine surgery and I looked up everything I could. It is nice to be appreciated!

Hi gin gin rummy,
Could you share a little bit about your spine surgery?
How painful it was after? How long was the recovery? How are you doing today?Did it improve your life?
I am older and my curve is so bad. Not sure anyone will consider operating. The operator is 20 hrs with a stay in the hospital between 7 & 9 months..Can’t se myself handling that! I know Manitoba, Canada Dr. Are reluctant in doing it. Now I am going to see what the US offers with the help of the Specialist & My M.D. from Manitoba. Canada now will pay to get this surgery done outside the country.

Grateful
Rita
