oh this sounRAB so much like me,,just like me,, i hope it gets better for you, a month isnt a long time, it will take a year before you may notice it getting better, they say it could take up to 18 months to heal, its a hard deal to got through, just try and keep your witts about you,, i know at...

Okay, all i can suggest is my experience with back surgeries. mine is on the lower half but surgery is something you cant take back or change, from what i have seen success rates only 20% on lower back surgeries. mine has been a nightmare from word go. im not trying to scare you but my hardware...

Taz,,, my hardware has came loose twice and your rod may have came out the loop in the screw,, the cage should be between your vertebre. but the screw on the other hand has a loop on the end that the rod goes threw. my roRAB are moving around now,, they want to wait till its a year after surgery...

try a diskogram it will show it while your lying,, however i will warn you they are extremely painful,,, i have had 2 and the 2 one i passed out but yet its will tell where the problem is

i'm surprised they would look into cutting again so soon,,amazed actually. the heal time on a fusion is 9-18 months, minimum 9 months, you will have some trouble due to the surgery for quite a while. but as for a mylogram, my doc does them and out in a hour or alittle less, i just have to have...

i got alot of scar tissue and they say its probroly whats causing some of my pain. I havent ever heard of them taking it out though. i dont really know what to tell you. alot of ppl have them to take the hardware out when they go in because your body may be having a reaction to it.

yes i had it not knowing alot of the ramifications of it,, i got hurt and they where all like theis is what u need now. so then it all started,, its a big decision to go threw with, the success rat is not that good,,

i have had one Tara. and basically they are painful. here is how it works, if you have a nerve causeing you trouble then when they touch the nerve thats causing you trouble , the pain will hit you. on the first one i was partially sedated and i remeraber screaming,, on the second one i wasnt...
