I wish to know if we can undergo Back bone surgery on our senior male member of the family after he had a broken bone (kulahe like head) from accidental fall at Home. Although he's grown weak with age but he's been active throughout life. We've got him admitted in a hospital for hip replacement surgery but now doctors are suggesting an pacemaker be operated in first place after doing eco tests (the lab reports attached) As we feel the unnecessary demand being imposed on us for additional expenses, please advise if reports indicate on pacemaker needed as patient hasn't ever reported by or related problems - warm regards.
