Is there such an operation as minimally evasive spinal fusion, I would think that you have a great doctor because I know of cutting to do a spinal fusion. Of course, I had one 11 years ago and procedures have changed with less down time. Mine was six months. I was okay for a couple years and the pain gradually came back and now is very hard to deal with. If you know of a reputable nerosurgeon at the Mayo Clinic, can you please let me of one. I just got a new MRI and if the nerosurgeon that I am going to see can't relieve some this pain, I will fly out to Mayo if I have to.
