I don't know if you're still active here. I just got on. I'm 57 and had a lumbar "cage" placed due to degenerative disc disease, spondylosis, the works. I also have osteoporosis due to an early age hysterectomy and cancer risk decision not to take hormone replacement therapy. 7 years later, I have adult scoliosis and its progressing swiftly. I've got pain management going, but need more. So, what have your experiences been?
