I see I was confused about the exact problem that fusion causes, and got it backwards oops (I'm not good at these mechanical type things lol).
I don't have the funds to go overseas for surgery, my husband was laid off from his 27 year job 2 years ago, and I'm not working right now. I do have BCBS insurance, but I understand they do not cover ADR multi levels.
I will check with Kathy about the surgeon here in Florida that she used.
I will also check on what you mentioned Bill1961, no Dr has even mentioned that to me.
I'm so glad I found this website, it's been a blessing to me, and I'm sure to others as well.
Thanks again!
