Mary, I'm so sorry that you are having such problems. I'll bet that much of your trouble predates the November injury because of the level of degeneration... that doesn't happen in just a few months.

Unfortunately, your options will be quite limited by the severity of the problems. Treatment options will vary greatly depending on where you go. Do your homework and make sure you discover all your options before you do something permanent, like a big multi-level fusion.

Good luck,

Mark
