Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

First of all, laminectomy cannot be reversed. I would like to know the reason for which your disk and lamina was removed. Was it for disk herniation?

Your symptoms before surgery are improved after it or not? If not, you need to contact your operating surgeon. He will be in better position to guide you.

If you were feeling better after surgery but there is occurrence of new symptoms then repeat MRI needs to be done. One side laminectomy does not lead to instability.

I need to see detailed MRI report and your operation record to guide you better.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Jayesh Vaza
