Default Dynesys

Hi, new to this, posting from the UK. I work in an operating theatre that does spinal surgery, the consultant I work with did a Dynesys fusion on my in the summer of 2006, I was back to work in 10 weeks. Since then its all been downhill, lol. I am off work at the minute with raging back pain, I am taking 20mg morphine every 6hrs. A recent MRI shows the screws are in place an have not migrated. My surgeon stopped doing the Dynesys about 12 months ago because he was not convinced about the long term sucess rate. I have now been refered to a different consultant, my symptoms seem to point to a facet joint problem, boy is it painful, so hopefully nothing to do with the original surgery, but on reading various web sites not 100% convinced. See ya
