I have severe stenosis at L2/L3 and L3/L4 along with moderate and mild at other 3 levels.

Pain in upper left side of lumbar along with "shopping cart syndrome" that has developed in recent years. L2/L3 pain has been an issue since 1996 and gradually worsened over time.

Injections worked for a while at L2/L3..Now not so.

I had vertiflex at L2/L3 in early 2023. No significant improvement in back pain. I am ok with that since it may prevent L2/L3 from worsening. I am considering vertiflex at L3/L4 and possibly MILD since I have "shopping cart syndrome" and ligamentus flavum is thick.

I am now taking a "time out"...My pain is always there but tolerable.

I had the MILD procedure back in January of 2023. I have spinal stenosis at L4-L5. I had leg pain (calves) both legs. Happy to say I no longer have leg pain. Still some back pain but nothing awful. Just happy to get rid of leg pain.
