Cat,
have you looked into the Kineflex/Charite trial drs? You prob cant get into a trial with a prior fusion...maybe that's what the women was thinking. I mention the trial because it might give you options for other experienced drs...in North Carolina, Louisiana, or Maryland...see http://www.spine-health.com/research...flex01.html#LA
