Alignment Problems Anyone?
I have had many extensive back surgeries. The last of which was in August of 2011. At this time , my fusion level was brought down to L-4. At this point i am fused or fusing from C4 thru L4.
I now have a difficult time standing straight up. when i stand i always have my knees bent. I read about flat back syndrome and although i am not totally flat (my lumbar lordosis is too low and possibly at a minimum) my symptoms are described by that syndrome. Back pain, and the sensation of falling forward. Since this has been going on my gait is different and i have developed hammertoes!! Not sure if that is related. I am having correction in one foot tomorrow. Just wondering if anyone has experienced anything like this or other problems with alignment. judy
