The more I think about it, the more I expect that insurance will deny another steroid injection. So, that might change my plan a bit.
Questions for my doctor
Why do you recommend fusion over something like a discectomy?
Since you've recommended spinal fusion, does this mean my spine is unstable
I've read that fusions are less successful if you can't pinpoint the source of my pain, do you feel confident that we have?
The MRI seems to mention several places where spine touches the nerve. What's the likelihood the other areas where the nerve root is touching will become a problem for me?
I've read spinal fusion involves a bone graft. How will this be done?
