Rex, you mentioned that you had back surgery. What type of surgery was it and was it successful? I may have L5-S1 fusion, so I was curious about your situation. Thanks,

Ever get cut on? Ive refused and been glad I sucked it up until the bulge and inflammation healed. Seems like once you get cut, youll always be back.

Mine were L4-L5 and L5-S1 bulges not full blown herniations

Yeah, I have heard good and bad stories. The herniation in my neck is c5-c6 indenting on spinal cord. My L5-S1 got worse and went from protruding to extruding and lost its cushion. Its laying into the S1 sciatic nerve and causes way more problems than the neck herniation. Been trying lots of conservative treatments for 2 yrs and only having relief from the spinal steroid injections but they have their negatives also.

I Like to hear from people that have had the fusion surgery to make a decision. Very hard to decide because I'm only 35 yrs old.
