Sacroiliac joint pain and my introduction

I'm following your comments on your history of surgeries at Mayo Jax, I hope you will continue in more detail. I had fusion there in Jan. 2021 of L4-5, it has healed well.
I do have pain below that area though on my lower left side; I'm not sure of its cause as I have degeneration in my SI joints, L5, and a tarlov cyst at S2. I saw the NS in December 2021, he said after a ct scan it's not fully healed, just keep walking as able and wait another 6-12 months. I am taking supplements hoping it helps. All the best on your recovery!

Good morning,
I began to have muscle pain in the middle of my back on each side of the fused spin. As time went on I would get a massage to see if that would help. It never did. I was in constant pain. I would wake all during the night in pain. I couldn’t enjoy standing, walking, gardening or even riding in a car. I knew the SI joints were a problem. It can be one side or both when could be the pain generator. Mine was both. I’m going on my 4th after surgery and still no pain.
I’ll be happy to answer any questions you have.
