Hi Jamie,

Sorry to hear about your terrible pain levels. What did the discogram say about L4-5 and higher? Sounds like they weren't the culprits.

Have you had a facet blocks at L5S1? The collapse of L5S1 can cause degeneration of the facets although it's not clear whether are not it rules out ADR. We've had at least one ADR patient here (Alastair!) with bone-on-bone that came out of ADR painfree.
