Surgery took 3.5 hours, First attempt 3 months ago was anterior but the surgeon after an hour of trying aborted.

    Hello, I turn 57 in a few days time and I've been a T2 diabetic for many years. This is the first time I have ever heard of a Back/Spine/Diabetes connection. My A1C is at 7, I am on the Trulicity/Tresiba/and a Novo Rapid combo. Due to Ozempic misuse in Montreal/Quebec at large, those who need it cannot get it. I've been on a waiting list for months now. I have stenosis in L3/4/5. I also have nerve compaction in T4/5. Also on a waiting list for spinal treatment. I've been living on drug maintenance for years now (Pregabalin/EX-St Tylenol), seeing that proper treatment for our public medical system is not available. BUT, if you can afford it, the Private route is there, for those with deep pockets. They will prescribe certain drugs for me but due to fluctuating kidney issues, I don't have access to any other form of oral medications. My options are very limited to what is available and what is possible. My back issues range from not being able to walk 3 blocks to grocery shop without having to stop and rest, amid the trip, and droning back pain that sometimes takes my breath away. Nobody seems to be in a hurry to find me viable treatment options, due to the fact that the public system here, is woefully lacking across specialized medicine for public access.

    I have congenital hydrocephalus. I have been lucky as I have only had 3 shunts and I am 53. It is possible to "outgrow" hydrocephalus or the need for a shunt. I ask as during some x-rays for an unrelated issue, it was discovered the my catheter is all broken up and was referred to a neurosurgeon who looked at the x-rays and past CT scans, we don't trust an MRI as we don't know if my shunt has any metal so I only do CT scans. My current shunt was installed around '76 or '77. I am not looking for a medical diagnosis but information. I haven't had any issues with my shunt since it was put in.
