Hi Sheri,
I’m back from my appointment with Dr Krishna. He was very thorough in going through all the different surgeries I’ve had starting with the SI Joint fusion, crushed L3 vertebra, Kyphoplasty, crushed L3 again and the L3 L4 & L4 L5 Fusion, Medtronic pain pump Implant & spine stimulator Implant.
I didn’t leave with an appointment for Surgery however I mentioned that I followed Dr. McClennan and he suggested A co-surgery with himself and Jamal McClendon ~
In addition to that, he’s presenting my case at their spine conference for input from all the spinal deformity surgeons, so I will get the opinion of multiple surgeons that are all experts in that field. I have a video Consultation with Dr McClendon in a week, I suspect a surgery date will be soon after that. I think I am looking at a T2 to L4 fusion
They leave their patients with so much confidence in their ability to gather information and proceed in the best direction possible for your needs. It is comforting to know that I will be in the best hands possible to correct my complex case.
I want to thank you again for all your support, encouragement and prayers.
Sincerely,
Bob
