  1. so many questions

    Stein21 replied to Stein21's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    Thanks for your response, sorry I wasn't really clear. I was told I need a 3 level spinal fusion but the doctor said if I got down to my ideal weight for my height, exercise and strengthen my core muscles that it could prolong the back surgery. Unfortunately I would have to lose about 85- 100 lbs and I don't think I can do that on my own so I was looking into this as well. Thanks again!!

  2. so many questions

    I am thinking of having this done due to having severe back problems and being about 85lbs over weight. My surgeon said that if I didn't want the surgery it would help to lose this weight and it could prolong surgery. So I am looking into this surgery instead of the back surgery. Has anyone had this done and actually had improvements on back pain???
