Hi Jennifer. I've had back issues for 11 yrs. Started with steroid injections in L5-S1. It stopped working. Went on to spinal fusion. Worked for a few yrs then pain returned. Did nerve ablation, worked for a yr maybe. More steroids. Tried Toradol shots too. Ugh. It's getting worse and worse. Also have severe DDD. Entire lumbar spine is shot basically. And scoliosis too. HELP.

@jeannid You have been through a lot, and I would think that the scoliosis complicates things a lot. Have your spine surgeons been specialists in spine deformity? Usually these highly skilled surgeons take the more complicated cases. What spine surgeries did you have and at what levels?
