Yes! Had it done August 2022. Very successful for me. I did a great deal of research and got 3 opinions, and researched surgeons. I’ve had a very easy recovery and doing things I thought I’d never do again. It was a good option for me. I’m 67 and travel, garden, walk, workout, etc.

My orthopedic doctor has suggested I get in to see a doctor that does CoFlex in the Dallas area. So far none have come up with my Googling. Would you share who did yours?

3 ReactionsI also had a decompression of L1/L2 at the same time. Just wanted to add that.
What was your diagnosis? What was your recovery like? Was it hard to find good surgeons?
