LC,
Did you have a bone graft with yours? I am 4 months post Dynesys and I am not soing so well. My pain sounds similar to yours including the knees. I thought it was just old age!
I think I read somewhere if they have to replace the screws then they use bigger ones. I don't recall reading that it was difficult or dangerous. I somehow came accross an instructional site for surgeons, but I don't remember how I got there.
Hang in there and sorry for your pain. Keep posting here as you are the only other one I have seen here that had the dynesys.
Betsy
