Guest guest Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 <It scares me to death to even think of some one cutting on my spine> Ok this comment worries me somewhat. I am scheduled to have surgery on Feb 7 to remove a tumor that is on or right at the base of my spine. Wish I had not seen this particular post. What is it that scares you about spine surgery?
