Had SED done,l3/l4
So at tuesday i had selective endoscopic discectomy with thermal anuloplasty for my painful l3/l4 disc. It was discogenic pain,with annular tear. The surgery went very well. Doctor perform discectomy and annuloplasty. Im still sore,but all this is in fresh state.
sed is first option for patients with long term chronic discogenic pain,proved with discography,before taking a bigger step such as fusion or adr. wish me luck for recovery and outcome result  if someone is interessed,feel free to ask me any question. Cheers and wishing you less pain

I think you made a good decision.
From my point of view, its important to try all indicated minimally-invasive treatments before "final" step like ADR or fusion. Lets hope your results will be acceptable and that you will be able to avoid problems in future... Fingers crossed

Newhere, I am so glad you finally had some treatment for some of your pain. I wish you the best in your recovery. SED sounds like a good surgery. Take care and keep us updated as to how you are doing.

I must mention again,i travel all around for my lumbal pain since i was 16. But this other neurosurgeons knows nothing. I realy dont know how i can know better some things about spine than they. I am not classic example as peoples with herniation seen on the mri. i had discogenic pain,and dr saftic found this out with discography. He is best doc for me. Caring and want to help patients,not refusing them. I highly recomend him. 5 stars rating to dr Saftic And which problem do u have with spine? Last edited by newhere; 03-06-2012 at 09:41 AM.
