Hi Nigel,
I had my dynesys in feb of this year. I am not sure it will be my magical cure as yet. I really do not have any complications and I am much better than I was pre-op. I still have limitations and bending, standing, or sitting for long periods can still be quite painful. My leg pain is gone for the most part, although I still get right buttocks pain and burning sensations in my foot. I do go on my recumbent bike and treadmil for 30 min each day and am building up some of the muscle again.
I really did not find the surgery too painful and I was off most pain meds by 2-3 weeks. I was going for walks around the block at 2 weeks, but that probably wasn't the best idea and I paid for it after. I don't have any specific complaints about my dynesys and I do have great mobility in my spine but it hurts if I bend too much or for very long.
I still have daily pain but don't use much in the way of pain meds too often anymore.
Good luck with your decision. I hope this helps.
