I'm sorry you are having such a hard time getting anyone to help you , especially the original surgeon or the fusion surgeon . I had a similar problem with a surgical accident which led to a 50% loss of my lung function. If the surgeon admitted anything had happened during surgery to send me to intensive care , it could have been identified and treated. When i was finally strong enough to handle and research it myself , it was too late (too much scar tissue) to be repaired.

Good Luck to you in your search for a good doctor
