I've finally gotten a copy of an x-ray of my back. You can see the shiny metal rods that were put in way back in '97. The operation that was done is called a spinal fusion and was remarkably painless at the time. Yes, those hooks go onto my vertebrae. Also yes, it does occasionally still hurt (bloody thing). At least it performs its job: keeps my back straight; I can't slouch at all anymore (makes it hard to be a true slacker).
