It would appear things have changed..
I had a follow up with my doctor today. After comparing notes with the pain management doctor that did the discogram, they feel both levels, L4-L5 and L5-S1, are causing problems.
He is recommending a fusion at both levels with the Medtronic Peek Rods? I have also consulted Dr. Gerardi (sp) in regards to the Active-L clinical and am awaiting a response. However, that may now be mute since we have a 2 level problem. I need to get this taken care of and would love some input from Mark and others. I'm kinda floored at this point!!
