Then my body went OUT OF WHACK big time. I had to have scope knee surgery back in Nov. 06 so that i could do rehab to have a total hip replacement which i had on Jan. 11, 07. THAT went great (the hip) but then the knee started killing me and my back AGAIN. Well, i thought it was my knee but i went to my knee doc today and they did an x-ray on my back. NOW my back is all messed up again................i know they won't do another fusion but what did you think they will do?? I'm now stressed/depressed, etc. i don't know how many more surgeries i can handle??????????? What do you'll think they will do now???? The x-ray showed big spaces between my vertabres.

Crap! I know that pain!
I am really sorry for you!
I have to have an MRI next week. looks like another disc.
I have 2 titanium discs a fusion and a back cage. all on the L7- S1 now it looks like more surgery between 6&7 up by my neck. plus hot flashes !Life sorta sucks some days. but you know what? we're are going to wake up to spring anyway. Count your blessings and feel better. Chocolate ice cream helps. :0=) !!!

I'll tell ya I live in severe pain every day and I get on here and I don't seem so bad. They can now replace the cushions between the vertebra. They are doing new things every day just make sure you get 2 opinions just to be sure you have the best care. Good Luck and God Bless.
