@mrjayb - sorry to hear that the MILD procedure did not work for you. In case you've not yet seen it, I also wanted to point out a Mayo Clinic Connect discussion related to the Aurora zip spacer you mentioned:

- Familiar with the Aurora Zip Spacer? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/aurora-zip-spacer/

@mrjayb Just watched an informative video about treatments for spinal stenosis. Looks like the ZIP is the only minimally invasive procedure which can target all 3 areas of stenosis (central, foraminal and lateral recess) in order to avoid a traditional fusion or destabilizing the spine with only decompression lami. Didn’t say if it can be done at multiple levels during the same procedure.
