Thank you for your post, Dale.
No, I haven't been in touch with Dr Z yet. His last view was what Mark was referring to that perhaps the rod from the fusion was irritating the facet. My experiences of trying to speak to Dr Z in the past (waiting nearly 3 months on 2 occasions, despite him saying he would phone me) make me reluctant to contact him. I appreciate he's incredibly busy, but the frustration and stress involved when someone says they'll do something and then leaves you hanging......... On the other hand, I think it's probably important to let him know about this at some point. I think maybe I need to wait until I have processed more the fact that having the ADR done was probably a big mistake.
