What has been your experience with kyphoplasty - I have a compression fracture on my spine 2 months
After the start of treatment with excruciating pain that is slowly improving on its own. I’d like to hear of others’ experience before I decide. Thanks
Gary had a kyphoplasty performed at CTCA Goodyear within 10 days after the L2 compression was diagnosed. He was sore immediately after & recovery took a bit longer than he had hoped. However, we're now back to walking 2 miles a day and continue to increase activity. This would not have been remotely possible prior to the procedure. We have nothing but praise for the entire care teams in different departments (oncology, pulmonary & pain management) at CTCA Goodyear.
How long since the surgery and is it still good and what was your downtime? Were you hospitalized at all or did you go home that day? And where was it done - thx
I had kyphoplasty and got instant relief.
Sorry to hear that - hope that found something to help
After 2 procedures within the space of 2 monthsI had a 3rd collapse and my surgeon said that in my case it was a domino effect and we opted to not continue.
