Lumbar Fusion
Hell CB,
I still have weakness from the PLIF, in July of this year, (One more day) and I will have one more control xray in Jan (15), I think the muscle just takes time and may never be when you were 30?. Have talked to people that had a fusion many years ago, and they still have problems, but the bright side, that awful pain is gone, and we don't have to worry about the nerve damage. Hope the cushion finds you well, it is better to sandwich with foam.
