Hello,
* The x-ray of lumbar sacral facet arthropathy with cervical thoracic abnormality and calcification indicate age related spondylosis, calcium homeostasis related disturbances of osteoporosis or others (post surgical changes in lumbar spine without surgery in that area, seems to be narration by human or print error , needs confirmation with x-ray technician or radiologist ).
However, kindly provide me all copies of x-ray during follow up session for my detailed study from surgical point of view, so that I can focus over them and guide further in accordance to that.
And also with that, please provide all details of your current symptoms which are very very essential to co relate the data on clinical grounds as well.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
