jpenguin , first congratulations on the birth of your baby.
I had developed some bad nerve pain and weakness in my right leg after a fusion last August. I couldn't put my right leg down at all and my left was very painful. It ended up that the screws loosened and the nerves were getting involved in that mess. I was home for 6 weeks in horrible pain and only mobile in a wheelchair. The surgery to remove the hardwear was in sept last year and with that the extreme pain went away. i also had foot numbness .
I had an emg for leg weakness and some nerve pain and i do have permanent damage to my L5 nerve.

Just sharing my story, Hope your doctor offers some help to you

Oh i am having surgery from the front to fuse L2 thru l5 and fix some fractures as it never fused after the instrumentation was removed.
