New SPS Members, please introduce yourself in this Forum.
We are excited to get to know you and eager to help in any way that we can. You'll find the SPS Members to be very supportive and very knowledgeable, as they have lived in similar shoes in the past or are currently doing so. The sense of "We are all in this together" is a great feeling and it has truly helped me when I felt all alone in my pain and spine issues.
to the SPS Family!

July Update: New SPS Member threads will now be moved from the "New Member Introductions" Forum to an appropriate Forum after 1 week.
I believe this will greatly help the New SPS Members get more focused support and help in regard to the future treatment option(s) / interventions they are seeking (Artificial Disc Replacement surgery, Fusion, Emerging Spine Surgery Technologies, Conservative Treatment, etc.). I hope this helps, and once again welcome to the SPS Forums!![]()
