Mark,
You sure had a tough time of it. My surgeon was going to remove the screws at L2 and cement the fracture as he though that was all my pain generators and that my pain was not that bad. Over the last 2 months it has been really bad and some new leg symptoms are occuring, including weakness. Now he is looking for the area that has the stenosis in it to do surgery on the right level. I am almost all the way fussed and he is trying hard to avoid any more. He said with my long kyphosis correction he should have gone down to L4, but did not want to take away all my motion. So i am sure he is the right guy, and i sure can't tell which levels are involved. He does believe that my pain is bad, just the MRI did not give him anything to go on. So i do consider my self extremely lucky to have found him . Hopefully the EMG will tell. I read that it can tell what levels are causing the problems. I'm hoping. judy Yes, Spine Sucks and Breathing Problems suck judy
