Re: Re: Spinal surgeries/Anne

[Guest guest]

Thank you Bennie and Millie for your responses. Do you think using

your own bone might have helped? Her surgeon is planning on using her

hip bone to use in the fusion. He is also doing anterior and

posterior. It's scary!

The reason I chose the pump was to avoid a fusion. It terrifies me.

All thoughts are most welcomed. What would you diffferently giving

what you now know?

Warmly,

Anne in Tx
