Default Spinal Fusion

Hey Strangers - I just got a new MRI and new Neurosurgeon who is going to perform a spinal fusion (L5-S1) at the end of June.....

I was looking at the MRI I had completed in 2005 and compared it to my new one....I now have facet joint arthritis and white spots at the end of my tailbone as well.

I have been having trouble getting around so hopefully this will help with some of the pain. If I send someone a picture (mri) can you help me understand it? I appreciate it.

Take care - KDS
