I FOUND OUT TODAY WITH MY FIRST FOLLOW-UP l5-S1 FUSION SURGERY THAT THE INSURANCE CO EXPECTS EVERYTHING TO BE DONE IN MY SECOND AND LAST VISIT. THAT VISIT IS TO INCLUDE AN X-RAY TOO. i SUPPOSE THAT IS RATIONAL AND THE INFO DEFINITELY HELPED IN PLANNING MY NEXT VISIT. NO MORE MUSIC (MONEY) FOR THE BAND AFTER THIS DATE.
Low back pain became somewhat dehabilitating in 2005
Have had 11 steroid injections, IDET, Trial for nerve stimulator, PT, chiropractic trial, practically every med known to mankind. Discogram indicated three diseased levels with L5-S1 being the most likely pain generator. Post minimally invasive PLIF with internal fixation (titanium) on 12-28-09 of L5-S1. Doing better than expected. Last opioid 7/9/10. Five months pain free, then my neck turned against me. MRI on 12/1/10-- disease at C2 to C7. Only surgical alternative is to fuse entire C-spine. Diagnosed now with Aggressive Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis with cord & brainstem active lesions
