I spent part of the morning on the phone with the orthopedic surgeon and his office. I didn’t think I would know any results from the MRI to my appointment a week from today. I was so happy to get his phone call this morning.
The MRI shows the one big compression fracture that I know is causing pain, but no other fractures. It also shows cancer in other vertebrae, but we already knew about those.
The good news is that he can put cement in the fracture to help with the pain. It’s called Verterbroplasty. Since cancer has eaten away at the bone, the bone cannot heal as it needs to, so that leaves a hole in the bone that is very fragile. The cement will stabilize it and hopefully get rid of a lot of the pain I’m having.
They’re hoping to be able to schedule the surgery for next week, but have to submit it to insurance for approval first.
I am so thankful that the Lord allowed us to find out this information so quickly.
Such good news! Thank you Jesus.
So glad you heard quickly and there is an option that may give you some relief. I think of you often and am always praying and sending you love..
So happy for you that you got this information. I continue to pray for you and for the doctors that are working with you. Yes, I do continue to pray for you, your husband, and the kids.
Praise God for the speedy and good news! Praying that the procedure will give you tremendous relief from your back pain and that your current chemo meds are shutting down that darn cancer! Love, Hugs & Prayers!
That is good news! I’m very relieved to know that something can be done to alleviate the pain. I will continue to pray for you and the plan for next week.
Thanks so much for sharing this! Have been praying about the MRI results so this is good to hear! And that there is some hope for the pain relief after that cement procedure… continuing to pray!
Ohh, very good news to repair the bone and relieve your pain. Oh Lord, please provide stamina while she waits for her surgery!
Thankful with you 🙂
Wonderful to hear that there may be relief soon. Will be praying for that insurance approval to come in so that the surgery can go forward.
So glad to hear that there is something they can do for the pain other than the meds. Praying the approval comes through quickly so you can get this done soon.
So pleased that your pain very shortly will be much less. Glad you are under the care of wise and devoted men and women who listen to their patients and are qualified to bring relief mentally, emotionally and physically. Praying for this surgery to be successful and your recovery to be all you hoped and more. May the Lord bring you peace and give you and your family comfort. Love you and so want things to be better for you. HE IS YOUR ROCK!!!
