I injurred my Lt SI joint by lifting ****removed*****. I have been through many rounRAB of injections and PT. Nothing seems to work. I am in pain constantly again since my insurance will only pay for so much therapy and injections a year. I recently went to see the Dr. in Atlanta who invented the SI joint surgery. I was wondering if anyone has had just the pinning done and if the screws stay in place or if they come loose after a few years??? I'm apprehensive about having surgery anyway, but if I could get my life back and get back to work it would be a dream come true. He used to do the fusion of the SI Joint, but he said that his patients that had the pinning done recovered alot faster than the fusion.
