I'm glad joe gave this advice.Because, after reading ninety nine percent of these, I was about to give up with advice for you too. I'm three years out of s one l five l four fusion, and one year out of taking the hardware out also. I only took three of the five hundred or so oxies that they gave me access to. Of course.Core strength and getting your body better than it's ever been is the only way to live this out. Start with stewart mcgill's big three. From there, make this your number one priority.

Hi jong and thank you for your kind words.

What was your experience like after having S1/L5/L4 fused. These are the vertebrae I would likely need fused. I'm doing all I can to maintain a strong set of core muscles and avoid this.

I'm interested in the length of your recovery, PT, and how long the pain lasted post-op.

And thanks for letting me know the hardware can be removed after a few years, I didn't know that.

Thank you jong!

Joe
