I had a spinal fusion done 18 yrs. ago of the L4, L5, and S1.
I had awful nerve pain radiate down the outside portion of left hip thigh, and buttocks. I had new x-rays taken of my back and it shows a slippage of the L3 and L2 now. I am extremely scared. I was put on pred which has helped, I am to receive an injection in the L3 area on Friday. Things are better but not great. How will they fuse all L2, L3, L4 L5 and the S1 together and what should I expect for an outcome?
