Does anyone know about endoscopic lumbar forminotomy ? I know I'm spelling it wrong. I already had minimally invasive laminotomy at L 3-4 which only worked for a couple of months after the surgery then the twitching and throbbing in my legs started back again when I became more active, walking on sand etc. Because that surgery didn't work out so well I'm reticent to get another one but if it was minimally invasive again I guess I would do it although I'm hearing that minimally invasive doesn't always workout. I'm supposed to get an epidural injection so maybe that will help temporarily at least. I have to begin researching which surgeons to go to because I don't really want to go back to the guy who did my first surgery since it didn't work out so well and I can't stand his nurse practitioner she's very nasty and unsupportive and I would have to go through her if I had the surgery with him again unfortunately. She's the gatekeeper he never answers any messages she does.
