Really Confused

[joejoe]

I went to see Dr Delamarter yesterday. We went over the results of my Discogram, and CT that followed it. As previously thought L1-2,2-3,and 4-5 were all bad. 3-4 was the only one showing normal. He recommended a double level fusion at the upper 2 levels, and a double level disc replacement at the lower 2 levels. He recommended replacing 3-4, because he said with the stress of the fusion and replacement below it would only be a matter of time before that disc gave out. We are looking at September for a surgery date as long as work comp approves it. Also I plan on getting another opinion before the surgery. Will Keep you informed...
