I"m glad you said rare for fusions as i am one who has been extremely helped by lots of them . I am basically fused or in the process of from c4 thru L2. I am having lumbar pain know, but do to different issues. My thoracic spine was a mess and a few discs were horribly painful . the horrible pain is gone, unfortunately i had a surgeon who accidentally damaged my phrenic nerve so i had to trade in pain for low lung function.,
But i have not been a candidate for ADR do to low bone density.
