Have found your site in perhaps the nick of time. Very genuinely lost in a maze of conflicting diagnosis info on what I think is a facet joint impinginging on nerve and need for second fusion surgery. Have tried EVERYTHING. Multiple mri's , cat scans, injections, one doc says extend fusion--another says no----6 yrs since last fusion---can't stand more than 15 minutes till leg goes numb---- severe back pain----I fully understand no one here can diagnois online, but i am overwhelmed with pain and indecision. Have sought best medical advice, but am at wit's end. Can't sit for more than 5 minutes at a time to even do this. Do any of the administrators ever phone a new member who may be in a near emergency situation. Thank you so very much, Jack McCrocklin-------am sending this with a sincere prayer
