David,
I'm sorry to hear that Dr. Fuller wasnt able to aspirate the cyst. I have been going to Dr. Fuller for all of my facet blocks and my last rhizotomy. He's absolutely wonderful and definitely one of the best of what he does in LA.
I don't really know the different kinds of fusions, I actually didnt know there were different kinds. What did Dr. Fuller say about the fusion and your other doc (I think Regan right?)?
I hope that whatever you decide to do it helps! Happy new year!!!!!!!!!!
