Liza Jane,
I am so sorry to hear that you are having problems with your fusion. I really wish you were feeling and doing better.
Are you going to go back to see your surgeon or has he dismissed you before the year was up?
I am told that you are not unstable so long as you have the rods and screws to hold you together. It is when they do a bone on bone fusion without hardware that you have to worry.
