Update
HI All Update
Still need to have the four level Disco, And suggested at this time by Neurosurgeon to fuse one Level at L5-S1 my concern is that the other Three levels are not great and this may cause the domino effect with more surgery,in the future
Origional Surgeon also said that Coflex is not expermaintal but FDA approved and said that a fusion at this time would not be suggested due to the four levels, well have to give him a call and see what his plan is I hope he has a great solution
