Did you have epidural before your fusion therapy? I DID TWICE.. but that was in OKC.. in 1995..fusion of L4, L5, S1.. caused by accident that had pushed L4 inward out of the stack about 1/3 of the way.. no problems since....great surgeon team took almost 8 hours..

@heisenberg34 need to add to last that I still carry 2 plates, 6 screws, and soft bone that hardened to hold hardware in place all these years.. .. the fusion was , for me , a great move ... as I have fewer back problems than my peers now...
