Yes, I had surgery at Northwestern with Dr. Tyler Koski. My pain prior to surgery was all kinks, throbbing, stabbing, aching…It was in my back, hips IT Bands and quads. With a walker I had trouble walking. It had been getting worse in the last few years.

I can't remember if you said you had osteoporosis. Please let me know. Thanks
@htolan
Did you have osteoporosis also ? My throbbing is in my calf muscles mainly but now for the past five months I have had increasing pain on the side of my right thigh, maybe that's IT band ?

What procedure did you have done? Fusion and if so what type of fusion? Thanks for your answer.
