@DianeGentike. There is another option other than fusion. BMAC stem cell transplant. Recently approved by FDA and covered by many insurers. See attached reference. I'm getting it done next week into my neck in lieu of a 6 level fusion.

If you're taking about getting a surgery I highly recommend it. I have 3 titanium pins in my right si joint and the amount of pain involved in the surgery. Is nothing compared to the pain of dealing with si disfunction for a couple months. I can walk like a normal person sometimes get out of chairs use stairs. my left side still hurts though and I'm pushing for another surgery. I hope you have as many good days as possible.

No problem I had to use a walker for about a week and then a cane for about 3more. I hardly have any si pain on surgery side , 1 year later now.

Awesome that is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to answer me Trent !!
