Of Mice & Men recently cancelled the remaining dates on their European/UK tour, due to health issues Austin Carlile was face experiencing as a result of his Marfan Syndrome. Now, Carlile has revealed that he had to undergo the first of three surgeries to fix “major tears” in his spine. He said the following:
“First of a few surgeries today!!! Will be doing something called blood patching, to fix the three major tears currently in my spine… Base of neck/back of head, mid back between my 11 & 12 vertebrae due to a bludgeoned disc, and lower back just above tailbone! Here we go!”
