Where do you live and where did you do the surgery ? Did they put cement in the screws do you know ? So it sounds like you were much better off than before the fusion.

I live in Indiana. Goodman Campbell did the surgery-Dr. dePowell. I don't know about the cement. He did have to use a cage because one of the vertebrae became crushed.
I'm so much better after the fusion. I could hardly walk before the surgery. Very extreme pain!
