Dynesys
I've been in touch with a UK patient from another board that had good initial results from dynesys but has gone downhill after time. She had a battery of tests but the screws looked okay. She also said it has fallen out of favor in the UK according to her surgeon. It has created additional leg pain for me. It started very soon after surgery and an MRI with contrast didn't point to scar tissue. I'm having mine removed without further spine surgery. It isn't worth irritating the disc above it.
