Attention Repeated Fusions

I am 50+ male, who has had 3 spinal fusions and am heading for a 4th. My first one was when I was in 9th grade, in 1968. It was S1-L5. Second was in 2000 at L5-L4. Third was 2005 at L4-L3. Now looking at L3-L2. After the last two surgeries, I havehad about 3-4 years of little pain and pretty normal activity. But the level above the previous fusion deteriorates and another fusion is needed. I am wondering if there is a faciltiy that can help me stop this progression up my spine.
