[NCFUSED]

Melissa,
I have almost the same story as Inflexable, lost all ADR appeals, had Posterior Fusion of L5-S1 on 5/17.

Although I would have preferred to have ADR surgery, I always held fusion as my backup option. IT came to the point where the pain was so bad I made a decision quickly.

The decision (like Inflexable's) was the best of my life. I dont see any limitions in flexabilty right now, and move better than I did before surgery.

My Physical Therapist has had a 2 level fusion years ago and this woman moves around so quickly, I cant see where it causes her any issues (I am hoping I can move as well as she does in a few months).

If you have any questions, Please let me know...

My Prayers and Best Wishes to You!!
