I think your pain probably is different than mine because I was told that RFA doesn't work for me cuz I have pain most all in my legs not my back. They said RFA only works for back pain. How long did the fusion last before you had your pain come back?

Hi
I had fusion of L1-L5 on October 13, 2025 and the pain was back at the end of January 2026. Bad pain but yes only in my back, does not go down my legs at all. I have had the 2 tests either numbing agents and now in 2 weeks I’ll be able to do the RFA. I’m hopeful it will take the pain away!!
