Hi There! I had a fusion in the L5/S1 on Oct 20, 2014 by Dr. Kenneth Pettine and Dr. Fernando Techy and am doing awesome. Please feel free to pm me and I would be happy to discuss with you. These two incredible surgeons gave me my life back. I have 95 percent mobility and no more Charlie horses, sciatica and feet cramps. My average amount of sleep per night is 10 hours. Prior to surgery about 3-4 hours. I am a poster child at my Physical Therapy appointments and my therapists have never seen a patient do so well.
