I WISH you could go to Munich get second or third opinion there from neurologist Baumbach and also the ADR surgeons there, Zeegers, bertagnoli etc. ADR sounds so much better to me then a 3 level fusion.
Baumbach found me to have a problem in my neck in addtion to the known problems in my lower spine. This problem seems to be compounding my problems caused by my lower spine.
Neuro says neck surgery, Orthopedic surgeons (2, both in Germany) say fix the "obvious" lumbar (MRI, pain history) problems first. Confusing, to say the least.
Sometimes there is no simple answer. Get second and third opinions.
