Laura,
Your pain profile sounds much like me. continuous no load moving, flexing actually reduces pain for me and any static load increases pain. Sitting and standing being the big one and holding an accelerator pedal is really bad on my back and foot.
May I ask, what is the situation with your back, do the facets cause this pain? I would stay away from fusion.
How was it before the charite, did it improve your situation (for a while?)?
