Hi, I don't like the sound of your neurosurgeon either. However, there is nothing wrong with getting another opinion, and getting your records. I do hope you can find a solution. I turned down a tendon transfer, it scared me worse than the spinal fusion. I did not return to my first neuro surgeon, I did go ahead and find another as my first fusion failed. I just couldn't see going back to the same one that I felt did not do the right thing. ginnie
