Hey, folks. I need some help.
One of my partners was in a car wreck a few days ago. They have a spinal fracture (T12 for certain, others unknown). They also have Ehlers-Dahlos syndrome.
So far the doctors are saying that a thoraco-lumbar fusion is going to be necessary. What they're not sure of is how well a spinal fusion is going to work while also being hypermobile.
Does anybody out there have experience with this? Any anecdotes? Data points? Papers to reference?
