Hi Jeff @jmweissler -- I received your private message and thought I would answer it here so that others may also be able to share their experience if they have one. You were trying to located information on the recovery of open bilateral SIJ fusion surgery and were looking for other folk who have had the surgery. Hopefully other members will be able to share their experience. Here is what I found:

Hi.No problem. That article relates to minimally invasive. I'm looking for bilateral OPEN joint fusion. Very difficult to find as it is out of the mainstream these days, but due to my entire lumbar being fused, my surgeon wants to do open & both sides at the same time. Says it will be best for me structurally not necessarily pain wise or post-op rehab though.
