What's your experience with Vertiflex Superion Implant?

I don’t have any side effects from having the Vertiflex spacer put in 6 weeks ago but I’m as yet not sure how much it has reduced my pain. Now that I am doing more after the six weeks I feel that it hurts more. Does anyone know if in some cases it takes more than six weeks to feel relief. I am 78 and in good health other than my stenosis. Also does anyone know if they got injections after Vertiflex and it helped.

I had that procedure done about 11/2 ago it took me quite awhile to feel better but the thing it helped me the most was the heaviest running down my legs that has gone away but as far as pain I can go shopping now for a little while whereas before I couldn’t hardly go shopping at all I have stenosis and severe arthritis and need rods and I’m 76 yrs old the thing that helps a lot is stretching by back with taking some pain meds but I am glad I had the procedure done
