Hello. A few years ago I had a seizure which fractured 2 vertebrae, and then a couple years later I had another seizure which fractured 2 more. So in total I have 4 compression fractured vertebrae.

When I was in the hospital the first time, they said surgery wasn't an option and there wasn't much that could be done treatment wise. The second time I can't really remember if they said the same thing but I'm assuming and pretty sure I remember them saying pretty much the same thing.

But now, a couple more years after that, I have been doing a little more thinking and research on a second opinion, because the pain/discomfort is not only more or less constant, but also fairly limiting in a lot of areas. So I feel like and from what I can tell, surgery is about the only treatment option that if possible could make any significant or satisfactory improvement/difference.

So I'm just wondering if anybody on here just from first glance knowing the basics of my case could give any input and knowledge in on the matter, and maybe even some on how I would go about getting another professional opinion. Thank you!
