Hello,
Just over two years ago, I had an anterior/posterior spinal fusion from L4-S1. Just after the surgery, found out that L5 slipped a little bit. A year after the surgery, I felt a "pop" in the middle of my back. When to see my neurosurgeon. He ordered a x-ray and was told that the hardware was fine. Eight months later, as I read the radiologist report, thru a patient portal, I found out the my L1 had a compression fracture. Which is now stable. Since then, I have notice that my legs has spasms, more in the right leg. And whenever there is a change in the weather, my pain increases and all I want to do is sleep. Plus my sciatic is pinching and I fall or loss my balance quite often. I did fall twice right after my surgery, first time In was re-admitted into the hospital for an infection. The day I was released, fell again in the hospital.
I have explained these symptoms to my surgeon and PCD. My surgeon's RPN thinks that bit might have something to do with my neck and my PCD was waiting on what the surgeon had to say. I have no problems with my neck.
I'm at my wits end. Please help me!
