I forgot--the best thing about the visit to the bone guy was this--he said that with the hardware failure I have, I have MICRO movement of the joints. He said that as long as I have micro movment, I can still get fusion. So, he says, the whole thing could heal in 6 months, despite the current state of things. As soon as I get the forteo I'm putting the bone stimulator back on!
Today two epidurals today--L5/s1 and L4/5. The 4/5 one mimicked the worst of my leg pain, so I"m hoping it gives me a few weeks of relief, and an ability to enjoy some vacation time in a car.
