This was taken in late April I believe. So it's half a year out of date. Pain is better since then but not by much. All I can do is lie flat and go for a short walk each day.
Dr. Ferrandez did mention spondy that could show in dynamic imagery. My doctor will not authorise these images though. He is genuinely trying to push somatisation nonsense. It's very frustrating.
Can I ask which doctor you went with and which disc? |
You're welcome buddy. I'll have to check your images out on my desktop computer later. I realized I hadn't checked this thread in a while. Sorry for the late response as well. I had my L5-S1 surgery with Dr. Rolando Garcia in Florida. You can read my full story on the surgical outcome section of the forum or just follow this link:
