Steve... thanks for the update. It's pretty hard to get our head wrapped around so many new technologies. We've seen some wonderful successes with Dynesys and too many not-so-successful surgeries too. Real world experiences like yours will help us to evaluate our options more effectively.

Is there anything unique about your configuration that makes the doctor understand why you were not a good candidate, even though the indications were there for him?

I hope you find some relief... thanks for sharing.

Mark
