Question Having hardware removed.

Hi friends,

I am having my hardware removed do to sooo much pain on my left side of my lumbar spine. Of course my insurance has to approve it.UGH!

Have any of you been through this and have you had relief? What should I expect?

Thanks

Personally, no I haven't, but a friend did. She had broken and loose screws, rods loose, just a real painful mess. Doc went in, took the old stuff out, replaced or repaired everything. It wasn't easy for her, but now she is off all pain meds, walks like normal, looks and feels great!

Good luck!
