Chronic Health Conditions Discussion and Support

I have no specific wisdom to impart, but I really think you should get a second opinion and possibly consider some physical therapy with a specialized spine therapist if available in your area. You may want to learn about the problem and the procedure, so here is the Merck manual for Consumers article:

Compression Fractures of the Spine

I’ve had a few minimally invasive procedures, and found them helpful. Make sure your surgeon does these all the time. Since your underlying problem is osteoporosis, I would look into physical therapy to strengthen the muscles around your spine, which hold your vertebrae in place, get a workup from a pain clinic for (non addictive) pain control, and get a second opinion on the surgery. Kyphoplasty will help the immediate problem, but the underlying problem is osteoporosis and kyphoplasty will not address that. The conservative route is a lot of work, but the results are worth it, IMHO! Good luck, I’ll be thinking good thoughts for you!
