See your surgeon : Yours is obviously a very complex situation and no one can say if you are "fixable" or not after so many failures. With that said, you should get opinions from your prior surgeons and one or 2 others. Ideally, the opinion of both an orthopedic and neurosurgical spine specialist would be ideal. Good luck!

Complex: Given the severity of you condition, and the complexity of your history, there is no way to evaluate your potential for surgical success based on a 100-200 word question. You must work with your team of surgeons.. Best Wishes..
