In April 06 i had a L5-SI FUSION with a
capstone divice and bone marrow. i was
told and it was reported that it was a
tottl discectomy. YET ON A RECENT MRI it
showed a disc bulging at that level but
because of the hardware and fusion they
could not see to what degree. Is it
possible that they didn't take out the
disk. And what would I be looking at to
fix this the pain is constant andgets
worse as time goes on.
Has anyone had this happen and what has
been the outcome?

Hello dnR,
It HURT to read your post and the pain
that you are in.
It is TIME to seek the advice of another
spinal surgeon. In fact the BEST spinal
surgeon in your area. It is not an easy
task I know, for I have seen 6-7 spinal
surgeons and I have yet to find that very
special spinal surgeon.
