Terry,

It sounds like the 'fourth one is a charm' and you are finally fused in your lumbar spine. You mention some pretty lousy continuing pain. Do they believe it to be from the operated lumbar levels?

How long ago was the cervical fracture? I have seen many people with fractured spineous processes in the lower c-spine that were not pain generators.

What are they recommending?

Mark
